Abstract

We discuss effects of electromigration in processes of nano-structured thin films growth at condensation from gaseous phase end epitaxial growth in the framework of numerical simulations. It will be shown that an increase in the strength of the electric field applied to the substrate promotes formation of percolate structures of adsorbate. We will analyze dynamics of the surface morphology change in details. This study provides insight into details of electromigration effects at self-organization of adatoms into percolating adsorbate islands during nano-structured thin films growth at both condensation from the gaseous phase and epitaxial growth of multi-layer pyramidal-like adsorbate structures.
