Thermal mass transport mechanism of an adatom on a crystalline surface

A Roux, N Combe - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
The diffusion of particles on surfaces subjected to a thermal gradient driven by phonons is
numerically and theoretically investigated. Performing molecular dynamics (MD) …

Cluster transport induced by a thermal gradient on a crystalline surface

A Roux, N Combe - Computational Materials Science, 2025 - Elsevier
Using molecular dynamic (MD) simulations, we study the thermomigration of small clusters
consisting of 2, 3 or 4 atoms on a crystalline surface. After evidencing the thermomigration …
