31. 3 (zero flow rate). Large-scale images were taken under minimum force as allowed by feed-back sensitivity (≈ 10 nN in air and ≈ 1 nN in solution).
32. AFM measurements were performed during dissolution of the {010} faces of β-alanine(1-pentanol and 1-hexanol) and α-glycine(ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol). Since the results were very similar for these solvents we present here dissolution of β-alanine in 1-hexanol and growth of α-glycine in 1-propanol.

34. The samples were mounted on the six-circle diffractometers, which were designed for surface X-ray diffraction, at the beamlines W1 and BW2. The sample surface was aligned with a laser so that the surface normal was parallel to the ω axis, and a constant angle of incidence was kept thoroughout the measurements. X-ray wavelengths of 1.319 Å for β-glycine and 1.24 Å for β-alanine were chosen. At every point along the Bragg rod an ω scan rocking around the surface normal was performed to obtain integrated intensities, which were corrected for Lorentzian and polarization factors and variations in the active area to give structure factor intensities [9].

36. Measurement of one CTR lasted about 2-3 hours. Each data point corresponds to the integrated intensity of a rocking curve, which took approximately 2 min.
