26. In some cases, the sputter yield of species B is enhanced considerably by the presence of impurity atoms-see S. Berg, A. M. Barklund, B. Gelin, C. Nender, and I. Katardjiev, J. Vac. Sci. Technol. A JVTAD6 0734-2101 10.1116/1.578049 10, 1592 (1992) and;

28. s. Our theory can be extended to accommodate this type of nonlinearity because we obtain linear equations of motion when we consider at small deviations from the undisturbed steady state.
