A technique has been developed for determining the linear tension of steps with one-ion and two-ion heights that form growth/evaporation spirals on NaCl(100). This technique is based on the interpretation of experimentally obtained nonlinear dependences of the steady-state distance between spiral’s turns in relation to the inverse undersaturation by numerical simulation performed using the analytical solution of the Barton, Cabrera, and Frank diffusion problem, taking into account the step kinetic coefficient and the back stress effect. The linear tension value of steps with one-ion height is found to be less than half the linear tension value of steps with two-ion height. This suggests that the studied vicinal surfaces are thermodynamically stable. The proposed technique can also be applied to other alkali halide crystals.
