We study the deposition of indium droplets on a glass surface and the subsequent formation of silicon microcrystals inside these droplets. Kinetic Monte Carlo methods are used to analyse the influence of growth temperature, flux of incoming particles, surface coverage, and in particular an energy parameter simulating the surface tension, upon the morphology of growth. According to the experimental conditions of crystallization, a temperature gradient and diffusion in spherical droplets are included. The simulations explain the formation of silicon crystal structures in good agreement with the experiment. The dependence of their shape and the conditions of formation on the growth parameters are investigated in detail.
