Abstract

Crystallization is a process of forming a phase with a highly ordered structure, in which the basic building units (atoms, molecules, or ions) are arranged in such a way that all units are positioned at 3D translationally periodic lattice. It is a very important process, and in that it produces crucial materials (crystals) that are indispensable for many industrial applications and scientific researches.
