Abstract
The growth patterns of the Si(111)-(7 × 7) structure (DAS structure) on the quenched surface are calculated using Monte-Carlo simulation. The model Hamiltonian, which was constructed in terms of the states of each 7 × 7 triangular half, based on an assumption of one-by-one formation of faulted halves in the previous paper, is employed. In the simulation the out-of-phase effect for growth is taken into account. Calculated patterns of the DAS domain growth reproduce the characteristic features of the observed patterns for growths on the terrace, from the F- and U-steps, respectively.
