In this letter we present an analytical model for thickness dependence on fabrication parameters for nano-sculptured films. The generality of the model includes universal Gaussian-type flux distribution, non-unity sticking coefficients, variable off-axis sensor location, and substrate tilt. The resulting equation fits well the experimental data. The results can be particularized for films deposited at normal incidence5 pages, 4 figures, nanotechnology, nanomaterialsMaterials ScienceOther Condensed Mattertext
