A Level Set Method for Thin Film Epitaxial Growth

A Level Set Method for Thin Film Epitaxial Growth

We present a level set based numerical algorithm for simulating a model of epitaxial growth. The island dynamics model is a continuum model for the growth of thin films. In this paper, we emphasize the details of the numerical method used to simulate the island dynamics model.
