Abstract

The dynamical process of silicon nanoparticles prepared by pulsed-laser deposition was simulated using Monte Carlo simulation method.In the simulation,the nucleation and growth model was adopted and the number of silicon atoms contained in the stable nucleus were studied during nanoparticles formation at room temperature.After extensive calculations and comparisons with the experimental data,it was found that the average size distribution of silicon nanoparticles was in good agreement with the experimental data when the number of silicon atoms in the stable nucleus was 6.

Key words： Monte Carlo simulation; nucleation and growth process; stable nucleus
