Abstract The slope-slope correlation function N(r) is investigated for self-affine rough surfaces. Calculations of N(r) are performed in terms of analytic phenomenological height-height correlation functions, which however compare well to real data. It is found that N(r) behaves as: N(r) proportional to r2(H-1) for 0 << r << small xi, Greek, N(r) < 0 for r < small xi, Greek and N(r) rightwards arrow 0- for r rightwards arrow + infinity. The parameters small xi, Greek and H (0 < H < 1) are respectively the in-plene roughness correlation length, and the roughness exponent. Moreover, connection of the results to model predictions describing stable and unstable growth is attempted.
