This paper is concerned with nonlinear diffusion equations related to a model of the motion of screw dislocations on crystal surfaces. We prove the existence, uniqueness and asymptotic stability of a rotating and growing solution with a timeindependent profile, which we call a spiral traveling wave solution.
