Dependence of the CaOx and MgOx growth rate on solution stoichiometry. Non-Kossel crystal growth

Rates of elementary growth step propagation on the CaOx and MgOx crystal faces were measured by AFM in flowing solution maintaining kinetic growth mode. Dependence of the step rate on the stoichiometry ratio r=[cation]/[anion] in solution in the range 5×10−2
