In this work we use a Computational Monte Carlo experiment for modeling the far from equilibrium growth of nanowires from a mixing of two particles species MBE experiment. We observed three distinct phases. There is a low temperature region where nanowires are formed. An intermediate phase, at a higher temperature where the solute floats over the solvent. Above a critical temperature a phase, similar to a paramagnetic phase in magnetic materials shows up. In this region solvent and solute are completely mixed up.
