Our study shows that the two distinct surfaces bounding the film behave at small wavelengths as atomically rough and independent ice-water and water-vapor interfaces. For long wavelengths, however, the two surfaces couple, large scale parallel fluctuations are inhibited, and the ice-vapor interface becomes smooth. Our results could help explain the complex morphology of ice crystallites.spajournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.096101http://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.096101open accessFísica atmosféricaQuímica física (Física)Superficies (Física)Química2501 Ciencias de la Atmósfera2210 Química Física2211.28 Superficies23 Química
