Roughness spectrum and surface width of self-affine fractal surfaces via the K-correlation model
Year: 1993
Type: article
Abstract: Theoretical expressions for the height-height correlation function of self-affine fractal surfaces are discussed in comparison with scanning tunneling microscopy, correlation and surface-width data obtained from rough silver and gold films. Fourier transformations are used to compare with equilibrium phenomena, and lead to a correlation model with an associated roughness spectrum of analytic form.
