Abstract

Crystal growth occurs at the interface of a crystal and its growth medium. Due to the abrupt termination at the surface, at the interface the properties of the crystal will typically deviate from the bulk and this can affect the growth behaviour. Also the properties of the growth medium at the interface will typically differ from the bulk. In growth from solution, for example, the liquid will show ordering induced by the crystal surface or have a different composition. Here techniques to study such growth interfaces will be discussed together with examples of the effect that the properties of the interface can have on the growth.

表面和界面结构在晶体生长中的作用

晶体生长发生在晶体与其生长介质的界面上。由于在表面的突然终止，在界面处晶体的性质通常会偏离体，这可能会影响生长行为。此外，在界面处的生长介质的性质通常与体不同。例如，在从溶液中生长时，液体将显示由晶体表面引起的有序或具有不同的组成。这里将讨论研究这种生长界面的技术，并举例说明界面的性质对生长的影响。

期刊介绍： Materials especially crystalline materials provide the foundation of our modern technologically driven world. The domination of materials is achieved through detailed scientific research. Advances in the techniques of growing and assessing ever more perfect crystals of a wide range of materials lie at the roots of much of today''s advanced technology. The evolution and development of crystalline materials involves research by dedicated scientists in academia as well as industry involving a broad field of disciplines including biology, chemistry, physics, material sciences and engineering. Crucially important applications in information technology, photonics, energy storage and harvesting, environmental protection, medicine and food production require a deep understanding of and control of crystal growth. This can involve suitable growth methods and material characterization from the bulk down to the nano-scale.
