    Abstract

    The development of a simple atomistic simulation of microstructural evolution is illustrated for a two-dimensional system comprising of a monolayer of inert gas atoms on a calcium (111) surface. The simulation results in the formation and growth of domains, the domain size increasing as a function of simulation temperature and flux of atoms incident on the surface. Of particular interest is the observed nonlinear critical behaviour in the surface coverage.
