Stability of surface nucleation

Abstract

The growth and decomposition rates of nuclei on a surface are expressed in microscopic terms. A stability factor is defined and employed for the derivation of a criterion for nucleus stability. Simulation results indicate that the stability factor can be used as a measure of the system stability.
