Evaluating structure selection in the hydrothermal growth of FeS2 pyrite and marcasite

Polymorph selection by synthesis conditions is common, important and mechanistically undercharacterized. Here authors show viaab initio calculations that surface energy effects on nucleation rate can explain how solution pH selects dominant forms of FeS2during hydrothermal synthesis.
