Abstract  Molecular dynamics/statics study of the atom process and relevant energy for formation of the twins in <111> grown copper films have been carried out. An embedded atom method (EAM) potential of Finnis-Sinclair type was employed. The results show that the deposited atoms on <111> grown copper films can form fcc domains or hcp domains in different localities. When atoms deposited at hcp positions, the energy of the system is higher than that at fcc positions. The increment decides the probability of twin formation. It is further indicated that the mismatch energy of the deposited atom is greatly affected by previously formed \{111\} twin plane. When the distance between surface and the twin plane underneath is smaller than three atomic layers, the mismatch energy is as high as that for perfect crystal of aluminum which does not form twins in <111> growth, and hence the probability for formation of twin is very low. As the distance increases, the mismatch energy rapidly decreases, and even becomes slightly lower than that on {111} plane of perfect copper crystal after the distance reaches twelve atomic layers, implying that the probability for formation of twin plane is higher than that on {111} surface of perfect crystal.
