The growth of a binary crystal is considered slightly below the surface-transition point, known from the study of static semi-infinite systems. Due to energy dissipation in the ordered surface layer the surface experiences a drag, opposing the growth process. Above some temperature-dependent critical growth velocity this drag shows an anomalous velocity dependence which can lead to a jerky instability of the surface motion.
