This 1998 study introduces the physical principles of how and why crystals grow, focusing on growth using molecular beam epitaxy. It covers simple models and basic concepts including diffusion, thermal smoothing of a surface, applications to semiconductors, as well as more complex topics such as kinetic roughness, growth instabilities and elastic effects.
