Classical nucleation and crystal growth theories describe how nuclei form, become stable
after reaching a critical size and then enlarge through monomer attachment. More than two …

In an ideal scenario, a phase field model is able to compute quantitative aspects of the
evolution of microstructure without explicit intervention. The method is particularly appealing …

The aggregative growth and oriented attachment of nanocrystals and nanoparticles are
reviewed, and they are contrasted to classical LaMer nucleation and growth, and to Ostwald …

We investigate rarely explored details of supercooled cosmological first-order phase
transitions at the electroweak scale, which may lead to strong gravitational wave signals or …

The thermal coarsening (180° C) of decanethiolate-capped Au nanocrystals is studied at
various tetraoctylammonium bromide concentrations. The coarsening kinetics are …

The classical theory of solid‐state transformation based on nucleation and growth
processes, developed by Kolmogorov, Johnson and Mehl, and Avrami (KJMA theory), is …

In this work the quench sensitivity of Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys is studied through continuous
cooling at constant rates of a range of alloys using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) …

We here review mostly experimental and some computational work devoted to nucleation in
amorphous ices. In fact, there are only a handful of studies in which nucleation and growth in …

Realizing the promise of nanoparticle-based technologies demands more efficient, robust
synthesis methods (ie, process intensification) that consistently produce large quantities of …

We studied the catalytic effects of Titanium, Iron and FeTi intermetallic on the desorption
kinetics of magnesium hydride. In order to separate the catalytic effects of each element from …
