Mechanism of Ostwald Ripening in 2D Physisorbed Assemblies at Molecular Time and Length Scale by Molecular Dynamics Simulations C

Abstract
Ostwald ripening can improve the long-range order of self-assembled monolayers by the growth of large domains and disassembly of smaller ones. Here, coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the dynamics of the stable assembly and the coarsening of defects of physisorbed monolayers of long-chain functionalized alkanes. Our results show that the partial desorption from the surface of one or more adsorbent molecules is the...
