Carbon Atom, Dimer and Trimer Chemistry on Diamond Surfaces from Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Spectroscopic investigations of various atmospheres appearing in diamond film synthesis suggest evidence for carbon atoms, dimers or trimers. Molecular dynamics simulations with the Brenner hydrocarbon potential are being used to investigate the elementary reactions of these species on a hydrogen-terminated diamond (111) surface. In principle these types of simulations can be extended to simulations of growth morphologies, in the 1-2 monolayer regime presently.
