2 Elementary mechanisms of crystal growth Crystal growth Growth of metal oxides : unknown mechanisms (compared to simple metals and semi-conductors) Why studying the growth of oxides? Better control => Good quality surfaces/interfaces Can growth instabilities in oxides lead to a spontaneous nanostructuration? «Step-flow» growth mode Cu(100) J. Neel et al, J. Phys. Cond.
