Abstract
To understand the cause of linear rate of grain growth under thin film deposition we have developed a 3D kinetic Monte-Carlo model which takes into account deposition of adatoms and their diffusion on a substrate, nucleation and growth of grains, migration of grainboundaries, surface diffusion at the "top" grain surface. Our simulation proves that the lateral grain growth under deposition is close to linear time law, which agrees with the experiment.
