Cover Story: In accordance with the downscaling of semiconducting materials, area-selective atomic layer deposition methods have been proposed to preserve thin-film quality, but there is a lack of quantitative data that relates to surface-scale kinetics and macroscopic fluid dynamics. Multiscale modeling provides an alternative, in silico approach for characterizing thin-layer deposition processes quantitatively, which are essential for their optimization and scale-up in reactor design. This work discusses the architectural multiscale framework, which conjoins ab initio quantum mechanics computations, mesoscopic kinetic Monte Carlo methods, and macroscopic computational fluid dynamics to simulate the behavior of area-selective atomic layer deposition processes for a spatial reactor configuration.
