Global and local energy minimizers for a nanowire growth model
Annales de l'I.H.P. Analyse non linéaire, Tome 40 (2023) no. 4, pp. 919-957
We consider a model for vapor–liquid–solid growth of nanowires proposed in the physical literature. Liquid drops are described as local or global volume-constrained minimizers of the capillarity energy outside a semi-infinite convex obstacle modeling the nanowire. We first address the existence of global minimizers and then, in the case of rotationally symmetric nanowires, we investigate how the presence of a sharp edge affects the shape of local minimizers and the validity of Young’s law.
