Description

The relaxation towards equilibrium of a profile imprinted on a crystal surface is studies above and below the roughening transition of that surface. Evaporation dynamics and surface diffusion are considered. Experiments and various theoretical approaches, including continuum theories and simulations, show significantly different features for profile shapes and decay times on rough and smooth surfaces
