摘要
Albao [Phys. Rev. B 72, 035426 (2005)] recently reported on a study on room temperature growth of Ga on Si(100). Monotonically decreasing island size distribution observed by means of scanning tunneling microscopy was explained using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations with a complex mechanism of atom capture. In the simulation, influence of the C-type defects on the growth process is not considered. These defects are commonly observed on the Si(100) surfaces and act as initial adsorption sites for deposited metal atoms.
