Abstract

The C-F interatomic potential of fluorocarbon is described by molecular dynamics simulation method. The potential is based in Tersoff's bond order type potential, called the reactive empirical bond-order (REBO) potential. The simulation traces the trajectories of all molecules in a system. The sputtering yields of carbon by Ar ion is calculated to confirm the validity of the REBO-type potential to ion surface reactions.
