The nucleation of crystals in liquids is one of nature's most ubiquitous phenomena, playing
an important role in areas such as climate change and the production of drugs. As the early …

Atomic‐scale modeling and understanding of materials have made remarkable progress,
but they are still fundamentally limited by the large computational cost of explicit electronic …

Nucleation, the initial process in vapor condensation, crystal nucleation, melting, and
boiling, is the localized emergence of a distinct thermodynamic phase at the nanoscale that …

The sixth blind test of organic crystal structure prediction (CSP) methods has been held, with
five target systems: a small nearly rigid molecule, a polymorphic former drug candidate, a …

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 …

The outcome of synthetic procedures for crystalline organic materials strongly depends on
the first steps along the molecular self‐assembly pathway, a process we know as crystal …

In this contribution, we review the recent literature on an alternative crystallization pathway
involving stable clusters prior to nucleation and show that the prenucleation cluster pathway …

This paper will review the crystal growth mechanism of zeolites and discuss some of the
latest findings in this field. A great effort has been dedicated in recent years to improving the …

The freezing of water to ice is fundamentally important to fields as diverse as cloud formation
to cryopreservation. At ambient conditions, ice is considered to exist in two crystalline forms …

The understanding of the structure, stability, and response properties of molecular crystals at
finite temperature and pressure is crucial for the field of crystal engineering and their …
