Catalystlike role of impurities in speeding layer-by-layer growth
Abstract
Molecular self-assembly is usually done at low supersaturation, leading to low rates of growth, in order to allow time for binding mistakes to anneal. However, such conditions can lead to prohibitively long assembly times where growth proceeds by the slow nucleation of successive layers. Here we use a lattice model of molecular self-assembly to show that growth in this regime can be sped up by impurities, which lower the free-energy cost of...
