Nucleation and growth are critical steps in crystallization, which plays an important role in
determining crystal structure, size, morphology, and purity. Therefore, understanding the …

Interfacial reactions drive all elemental cycling on Earth and play pivotal roles in human
activities such as agriculture, water purification, energy production and storage …

Inorganic scaling caused by precipitation of sparingly soluble salts at supersaturation is a
common but critical issue, limiting the efficiency of membrane-based desalination and brine …

All solid materials are created via nucleation. In this evolutionary process, nuclei form in
solution or at interfaces, expand by monomeric growth and oriented attachment, and …

Biomineralization refers to the process through which minerals nucleate in a structured
manner to form specific crystal structures by the regulating of biomacromolecules …

Teeth staining is a common dental health challenge in many parts of the world. Traditional
teeth whitening techniques often lead to enamel damage and soft tissue toxicity due to the …

In this review article, selected, latest theoretical, and experimental developments in the field
of nucleation and crystal growth of inorganic materials from aqueous solution are …

Biomineralized composites, which are usually composed of microscopic mineral building
blocks organized in 3D intercrystalline organic matrices, have evolved unique structural …

Graphene liquid cell electron microscopy (GLC-EM), a cutting-edge liquid-phase EM
technique, has become a powerful tool to directly visualize wet biological samples and the …

It is often acknowledged that the search for life on Mars might produce false positive results,
particularly via the detection of objects, patterns or substances that resemble the products of …
