Magnesium (Mg) has the lowest density of all structural metals and has excellent potential
for wide use in structural applications. While pure Mg has inferior mechanical properties; the …

Despite the vast knowledge accumulated on silicon, germanium, and their alloys, these
materials still demand research, eminently in view of the improvement of knowledge on …

The elastic constants of a wide range of models of defected crystalline and amorphous
silicon are calculated, using the environment-dependent interatomic potential (EDIP). The …

The internal configurational entropy of point defect clusters in crystalline silicon is studied in
detail by analyzing their potential energy landscapes. Both on-lattice and off-lattice …

In this Letter we report kinetic lattice Monte Carlo simulations of vacancy-assisted diffusion in
silicon. We show that the observed temperature dependence for vacancy migration energy …

A multiscale computational framework is presented for modeling and simulation of point-
defect aggregation in crystalline silicon. Large-scale molecular dynamics simulations based …

The initial stages of the formation of bubbles due to helium implantation in silicon remain
largely unknown, for they occur at time and space scales hardly accessible to experiments …

Front-end processing mostly deals with technologies associated to junction formation in
semiconductor devices. Ion implantation and thermal anneal models are key to predict …

A detailed computational study of compositional segregation during growth of colloidal
binary solid-solution crystals is presented. Using a comprehensive set of Metropolis Monte …

Ion implantation is a very well established technique to introduce dopants in
semiconductors. This technique has been traditionally used for junction formation in …
