Abstract

We investigate a solid-on-solid model of epitaxial crystal growth in 1 + 1 dimensions. The emerging distribution of terrace sizes and the resulting currents on surfaces with a given inclination angle are calculated analytically. Furthermore, we evaluate the stable magic slope which is selected due to the compensation of the competing effects. Results of Monte Carlo Simulations are in very good agreement with the theoretical predictions.
