摘要：
A stochastic partial differential equation for the morphological evolution of strained epitaxial films is derived from atomistic aggregation kinetics. The transition rules and rates are based on a model that incorporates the effects of strain through environment-dependent energy barriers to adatom detachment. Comparisons with previous approaches based on continuum elasticity provide an atomistic interpretation of the governing equation for heteroepitaxial thin films.
