Abstract
A model is proposed for the structural transformation and correspondin g induced deformation in physical three-dimensional interface of the m etal-oxide system. The thermodynamical and elastic state of the system is described by the Landau-Ginzbourg free energy. Calculated theoreti cal phase diagram shows several different types of isothermal growth p rocesses. The model is applied to the case of the oxidation of the (00 1) Fe surface.
