Computer simulation of the sputtering process

The sputtering of Cu fcc (110), (100) and (111) surfaces by 1- to 10-keV A+ ions at normal incidence has been investigated by high-speed digital computer techniques. The interatomic repulsions are described by Born-Mayer potentials. The shape of the sputtering ratio curves are in close agreement wit...
