The effect of the atomic mobility on a film surface has been studied by using a three-dimensional atomistic thin-film deposition model which simulates three-dimensional thin-film images, surface profiles and cross-sectional area pictures. In addition, quantitative results of surface RMS roughness, average film thickness, atomic coordination number and its distribution, and solid fraction of the deposited thin films, were obtained from the simulations. When the film surface mobility increased from 0.3 to 3.0, RMS roughness decreased from 6.5 to 1.1, solid fraction increased from 0.27 to 0.56 and average film thickness decreased from 40 to 28, due to the reduction of the voids within the film. The full-width half magnitude of the atomic coordination distribution became narrower indicating the increased degree of crystallization. With increase in surface mobility crossing the boundary to 1.5, the film evolved from a porous or loose columnar structure with voids, to a densely packed fibrous grain structure which can be categorized by the zone structure models.
