Kinetics of two-step nucleation of crystals
Kinetics of two-step nucleation of crystals is a scholarly work by Dimo Kashchiev, published in 2005 in ''Journal of Chemical Physics''. The main subjects of the publication include Crystal, materials science, chemistry, glass transition, chemical physics, thermodynamics, crystallography, kinetics, ice nucleus, phase, nucleation, supersaturation, and crystallization. The authors present a theoretical investigation of the kinetics of this two-step nucleation of crystals and derive general expressions for the time dependence of the number of crystals nucleated within the particles of the intermediate phase.
