An Introduction to Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations of Surface Reactions

de A.P.J. Jansen ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
Kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations still represent a quite new area of research, with a rapidly growing number of publications. Broadly speaking, kMC can be applied to any system describable as a set of minima of a potential-energy surface, the evolution of which will then be regarded as hops from one minimum to a neighboring one. The hops in kMC are modeled as stochastic processes and the ... Leer más
