ABSTRACTUsing Molecular Dynamics, the evolution dynamics of Sn on the (111) and (100) surfaces of Cu have been investigated as a function of coverage and temperature. The interaction potentials are described by modified embedded atom method (MEAM) potentials. The calculated diffusion activation energies of Cu in Sn and Sn in Cu agree reasonably well with experimental values. We find that the structure of the overlayer depends on the morphology of the substrate and remains stable up to temperatures of the order of 70% of the melting temperature of the substrate at which diffusion of Sn into the substrate and Cu atoms onto the overlayer is observed.

ABSTRACTWe have performed calculations of Sn deposition on Cu(111) and Cu(100) surfaces. The atomic interactions are described by modified embedded atom method (MEAM) potentials. This is a modification of the embedded atom method (EAM) to include higher moments in the electron density. We find the at low coverages Sn deposited on Cu(111) leads to the formation of a two-dimensional (2D) alloy phase with a p (√3 × √3)-R 30° structure which is stable up to temperatures of 900K. These results are in agreement with ion-scattering experiments of thin films of Sn on Cu(111). For deposition of Sn on Cu(100), a 0.25 monolayer (ML) coverage results in the formation of a stable 2D alloy phase with a p(2 × 2) structure. This result is also in agreement with LEED measurements.
