Machine learning predictions of surface migration barriers in nucleation and non-equilibrium growth
Experiments and simulations can reveal energetic barriers during atomic-scale growth but are time-consuming. Here, machine learning is applied to single images from kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of sub-monolayer film growth, allowing diffusion barriers and binding energies to be accurately determi...

Summary: | Experiments and simulations can reveal energetic barriers during atomic-scale growth but are time-consuming. Here, machine learning is applied to single images from kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of sub-monolayer film growth, allowing diffusion barriers and binding energies to be accurately determined. |
