Stochastic Development of Dissolution Morphology

In order to investigate the formation of different types of pit shapes on the crystalline surfaces, a mathematical model has been considered, which does not take into account surface diffusion and which defines the removal or transformation of different characteristic sites on the surface according to a set of frequencies. The characteristic sites are defined according to Terrace-Ledge-Kink model for the simple cubic crystal. With the help of the geometry of the step systems, specific conditions have been obtained under which the step systems considered could be obtained for a pit of monoatomic thickness. The dissolution of a simple cubic crystal has been simulated according to a set of probabilities. / Thesis / Master of Engineering (ME)
