Produktbeschreibung

How Crystals Grow explores the fascinating science behind the formation of crystals, from the geological processes shaping natural gemstones to the lab-controlled synthesis of crystals essential for technology. The book delves into the fundamental principles governing crystal formation, emphasizing nucleation, growth mechanisms, and the impact of impurities. For instance, even trace amounts of impurities can dramatically affect a crystal's properties, influencing its color or electronic conductivity.

The book uniquely combines theoretical foundations with practical applications. It begins by introducing crystal structure and thermodynamics, then progresses to the kinetics of crystal growth, and concludes with real-world applications in electronics, optics, and pharmaceuticals. By linking mineralogy, materials science, and solid-state physics, How Crystals Grow provides a comprehensive understanding of both natural and synthetic crystals, explaining how thermodynamic forces and kinetic limitations interplay to control crystal growth.
