Abstract
We present Monte Carlo simulations of the growth of an amorphous ice film on the uniform substrate at low temperatures. The employed 1+1 lattice model takes into account anisotropy of interactions between water molecules. In addition, the newly arrived molecules are allowed to relax. The time dependence of the interface width is found to be described by the power law with exponent β=0.28–0.30, typical for the conventional ballistic deposition models. This finding supports the concept of universality of the growth of amorphous interfaces.
