摘要:

基于自由能泛函的热力学变分,我们提出了一个用于模拟刚性曲面衬底上薄膜固态去湿的二维锐界面模型。该模型描述了通过表面扩散控制的质量输运和接触点沿弯曲基底的迁移发生的界面演化。此外,表面能各向异性很容易被纳入模型,和接触点迁移是明确的放松接触角边界条件描述。我们实施的数学模型,通过半隐式参数有限元方法来研究几个有趣的现象,如“小”粒子迁移弯曲基板和模板化的固态去湿预图案化基板上。基于大量的数值模拟,我们证明了“小”固体颗粒的迁移速度与衬底曲率梯度$\hatκ'$成正比,与颗粒面积的平方根成反比$\sqrt{A}$,并且随着各向同性杨氏角$θ_i$的增大而减小.此外,我们还观察到四个周期性类别的去湿预图案化的正弦基板上。我们的方法可以提供一个方便和强大的工具,探索如何通过利用模板辅助的固态去湿生产有序的纳米粒子。

英文摘要:

Based on the thermodynamic variation to the free energy functional, we propose a sharp-interface model for simulating solid-state dewetting of thin films on rigid curved substrates in two dimensions. This model describes the interface evolution which occurs through surface diffusion-controlled mass transport and contact point migration along the curved substrate. Furthermore, the surface energy anisotropy is easily included into the model, and the contact point migration is explicitly described by the relaxed contact angle boundary condition. We implement the mathematical model by a semi-implicit parametric finite element method to study several interesting phenomena, such as "small" particle migration on curved substrates and templated solid-state dewetting on a pre-patterned substrate. Based on ample numerical simulations, we demonstrate that, the migration velocity of a "small" solid particle is proportional to the substrate curvature gradient $\hatκ'$ and inversely proportional to the square root of the area of the particle $\sqrt{A}$, and it decreases when the isotropic Young angle $θ_i$ increases. In addition, we also observe four periodic categories of dewetting on a pre-patterned sinusoidal substrate. Our approach can provide a convenient and powerful tool to exploring how to produce well-organized nanoparticles by making use of template-assisted solid-state dewetting.
