“…The phenomenon of penetration is already reported in simulation [31], and experiments. Recently, Bal et al [49] have experimentally studied the interdiffusion of Cu atoms on Si(001). They found that the interdiffusion depends on the surface treatment where the diffusion of Cu into H-terminated surface is greater than the Br-terminated Si surface.…”

The growth processes of Cu thin film on stepped Si(001) substrate were investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. The modified embedded atom method was used to describe the atomic interaction between Cu-Cu, Si-Si, and Si-Cu. In this study, four different Si(001) substrate configurations were examined: i) flat Si(001) substrate; ii) stepped Si surface with 3-monoatomic layers step; iii) Stepped Si surface with 5-monoatomic layers step; iiii) stepped surface with 7-monoatomic layers. Our aim here is to investigate the effect of stepped substrate on the structure, the surface roughness, and the morphology of deposited Cu thin film. The results show that the Cu film obtained has a crystalline structure based on the radial distribution function. In addition, the morphology of Cu film is not smooth for the different stepped substrates. More precisely, the surface roughness increases when the substrate presents a step and rises with the augmentation of the step height. On the other hand, our results reveal that the penetration of Cu atoms in the simplest case of the flat configuration is limited to the top layer of the substrate. While for the stepped substrate, our findings show that the penetration in the stepped substrate is more important and deeper within the upper terrace compared to the lower terrace. Furthermore, the numerical calculations demonstrate that the step height has no significant effect on the penetration of Cu atoms on the Si(001) stepped substrate. These results are appropriate for the deposition of copper atoms into the stepped substrate of silicon.

In this work, we use the treated PF-ADF(2 ∼ 3 mm) as the reinforcing body(fiber) and the biodegradable PBS as the matrix. The different treated PF-ADF were mixed with PBS particles according to the mass percentage of 20:80, and C-PBS, C-DF/PBS, C-ADF/PBS and C-KDF/PBS were prepared by molding process. The influence of surface treatment on the microstructure and physical properties of the fiber were discussed and the mechanical properties of the composites were compared. Also the biodegradability of the different composite was analyzed. The results showed that most of the non-cellulosic materials such as pectin were removed from C-DF, but a certain amount of pectin remains on the surface. The surface of C-ADF appeared ‘S’ groove, and the groove on C-KDF was good continuity and deep. Compared with C-DF, the tensile strength of C-ADF and C-KDF increased by 5.08% and decreased by 3.58% respectively. Compared with C-PBS, the tensile strength and bending strength of C-KDF/PBS increased by 48.32% and 25.97% respectively, and the tensile modulus and bending modulus increased by 146.45% and 128.3% respectively. The changes of biodegradability of C-DF/PBS, C-ADF/PBS and C-KDF/PBS composites were consistent, but the change of weightlessness rate of C-KDF/PBS was the smallest. The more degraded and uneven the surface of the composite, the more obvious the decrease in contact angle.
