Abstract
A seminal model describing the kinetics of growth of thin oxide films on metal crystals was proposed by Cabrera and Mott (CM). The model is based on the assumption that the growth is limited by the field-facilitated activated jumps of metal ions located in steps on the metal–oxide interface. We generalize the CM model by (i) exploring the interplay of jumps of metal ions from the step and terrace sites at the metal–oxide interface, and (ii) scrutinizing the processes at the oxide–gas-phase interface. The former factor is found to change the physical meaning of the parameters in the CM growth law. The latter factor results in modification of the growth law. In particular, the oxidation kinetics becomes dependent on the O 2 pressure. More specifically, the oxidation rate is predicted to increase with increasing pressure. This effect is, however, rather weak and becomes progressively weaker with increasing oxide film thickness.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
