摘要：
Step-flow growth of a crystal surface is considered in the case when the adatom diffusion on the terraces is governed by Levy. ights. A superdiffusive analog of the Burton-Cabrera-Frank (BCF) theory is developed, and the step-flow velocity is found as a function of the terrace width and the anomalous-diffusion exponent. It is shown that the Levy-flights-controlled step-flow velocity is lower than that in the case of normal diffusion. Copyright (c) EPLA, 2008.
