Abstract
The reasons for the anomalously rapid (for solids) growth of ''cancers '' (filamentary crystals, hills, pores, and other formations) on the s urface of samples of superionic conductors with mixed electronic-ionic conductivity (of the type Cu2-xSe and Ag2Te) are discussed. The effec ts are attributed to the acceleration of mobile ions and activated ion s in the ''core'' of the superionic by free electrons in the joint ''c hemical'' diffusion of ions and electrons in the samples.
