Correspondingly, a transition from a 3-dimensional columnar growth regime towards a layer-by-layer growth at increased energies was observed with the film texture changing from a weak basal texture towards a highly oriented film with the c-axis normal to the surface. Additionally, a higher energy helped stabilizing supersaturation, especially for Mg–Ti alloys. However, only a weak influence of the morphology on the corrosion rates was observed, which were mainly governed by the chemical composition of the films.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nimb.2007.01.030} (DOI).
