Transient to steady-state morphology evolution of carbon surfaces under ion bombardment: Monte Carlo simulations

H Tran, HB Chew - Acta Materialia, 2024 - Elsevier
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have established the sputtering yields of carbon
under the low-energy bombardment of noble gas ions. Here, we upscale these MD results to …

View factor modeling of sputter-deposition on micron-scale-architectured surfaces exposed to plasma

CE Huerta, TS Matlock, RE Wirz - Journal of Applied Physics, 2016 - pubs.aip.org
The sputter-deposition on surfaces exposed to plasma plays an important role in the erosion
behavior and overall performance of a wide range of plasma devices. Plasma models in the …
