Monte Carlo Simulations of Chemisorbed Overlayers

  • Chapter
Chemistry and Physics of Solid Surfaces IV

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 20))

Abstract

Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is an increasingly popular method for treating complex many-body systems in several branches of physics. The simulation of lattice gas models of adlayer systems in surface physics [10.1–13] is one facet of this development and is the subject of this review.
