Abstract
The classical theory of layer-spiral growth of crystals [1,2] proceeds from the linear dependence of the velocity of step motion v on relative supersaturation σ. In the present work, contrary to earlier studies on ADP [3,4], we have observed a nonlinear v(σ) dependence and a nonmonotonic p(σ) dependence of the growth hillock slope, and we suggest the corresponding theory of spiral...
