Pre-critical fluctuations and what they disclose about heterogeneous crystal nucleation
Heterogeneous nucleation is a process that mediates the birth of many crystalline materials, but is not fully understood. Here, the authors show that the study of precritical cluster fluctuations paves new ways for the identification of polymorphism, polymorphic control and theoretical modeling.
