Abstract
Expressions for the saturation density of stable solid clusters, as formulated by Lewis and Campbell, are considered and modified. Consideration of the path behavior of randomly migrating monomer shows that the size of trapping areas is reduced by a factor of 10 in typical cases. Computational methods are illustrated to facilitate calculation of desorption and migration activation energies from saturation density data.Keywords
