Phase-Field Simulations at the Atomic Scale in Comparison to Molecular Dynamics

Figure 1

Growth velocity of a planar front at different temperatures for the interface orientations (a) [100], (b) [110], and (c) [111] in comparison to molecular dynamic results. The values of the kinetic coefficient can be found in Table 1. (d) shows the phase-field results for all orientations.
