Abstract
Physical vapor deposition (PVD) has been an important method to synthesize metallic nanorods during the past two decades. Based on the main physical process of crystal growth, this letter made a growth model of metallic nanorods with kinetic lattice Monte Carlo (KLMC) method and studied the effects of three-dimensional (3D) Ehrlich–Schwoebel (ES) barrier during the metallic nanorods growth. According to the simulation results, a large 3D ES barrier affects the surface morphology apparently. With analyze the simulation results, 3D ES barrier promotes the step formation and increases the step height greatly, and it is the main factor of metallic nanorods formation.
