Abstract: The aim of this work is to suggest and analyze a system of equations to model a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) process. This process is used for instance for the fabrication of thin film solar cells. A substrate layer is inserted in a hot chamber, where different chemical species are injected under a gaseous form. These different species deposit onto the surface of the substrate, which produces the growth of a thin solid film. Due to the high temperature in the hot chamber, the chemicals also diffuse in the bulk of the solid film. This diffusion phenomenon is modeled through a system of cross-diffusion equations which is closely related to the Stefan-Maxwell system (see [1] for instance). The analysis of the obtained model is restricted so far to the one-dimensional case and relies on the so-called boundedness by entropy method which was introduced in [2] and developped in [3]. Results about the existence of a weak solution, long time behaviour and optimal control will be presented. (joint work with Athmane Bakhta) [1] A. Jüngel and I.V.
