The effect of concentration of Mn(II) ions on the growth habit and the surface micromorphology of different as‐grown faces of ammonium oxalate monohydrate (AO) single crystals grown from aqueous solutions was studied at a constant temperature of 30 °C and predefined supersaturations up to 20%. It was observed that the growth habit and the surface morphology of the crystals strongly depend on the supersaturation used for growth and the impurity concentration in the solution. The experimental results were analysed in terms of connected nets determined from different projections of the structure of AO crystals. Analysis of the observations revealed that: (1) the directions of connected nets corresponding to basic growth units composed of single (NH4)2C2O4 · H2O molecules are in excellent agreement with the low‐index crystallographic directions of the orientations of growth layers, (2) all faces appearing in the growth morphology of AO crystals are F faces, and (3) the {001} face growing from pure aqueous solutions is essentially a kinetically rough face but the presence of Mn(II) impurity leads to their appearance in the morphology due to increase in the strength of bonds of the connected nets composing the surface graph.  相似文献

The crystal growth rate under diffusion control is considered. Together with nutrient diffusion, the physi-sorption of an inert gas, which impedes the surface kinetics during vapour growth, is taken into consideration. In this way the size of the diffusion field surrounding vapour grown crystals was estimated. The relations obtained are checked with data for the growth of zinc single crystals in argon atmosphere. The appearance of shallow cavities on their basal faces is used as a morphological mark for growth under diffusion control. Besides, the microstructure of the inner edge of the macroscopically flat periphery, surrounding the shallow cavities is investigated experimentally, by means of SEM.  相似文献

The surface morphology of the (010) face of potassium biphthalate (KBP) crystals grown from aqueous solutions under the supersaturation ranging within 0.029–0.04 has been studied by the methods of optical and electron microscopies. It was revealed that the (010) surface has polygonal growth macrohills of the dislocation nature, small hillocks developing by the mechanism of successive two-dimensional nucleation, and numerous two-dimensional nuclei. The density of small hillocks (104–105 cm?2) exceeds the dislocation density in KBP crystals by one to two orders of magnitude. It is shown that at low supersaturations, the (010) face grows simultaneously by the dislocation mechanism and the mechanism of successive two-dimensional nucleation. It is also established that the tangential velocity of growth-step motion on the (010) face increases in the presence of organic impurities. This effect can be used as one of the factors increasing the growth rates of crystal faces at low impurity concentrations (the so-called catalytic effect of impurities).  相似文献

The rates of growth for the basic and the prismatic faces of graphite crystals are calculated in dependence of the supersaturation on the assumption that the faces at high supersaturations grow by twodimensional nucleation from an iron-carbon melt. Near the thermodynamic equilibrium prismatic faces grow more quickly than basic faces. At high supersaturations the ratio of the growth rate is reversed. The results are suitable to explain the different kinds of graphite crystals in cast iron.  相似文献

The crystallization of some inorganic salts (KH2PO4, NaCl, Sr(NO3)2, KNO2, Ca(OH)2) by the thermal-gradient (with decreasing temperature) and solvent-evaporation methods using microwave heating of solutions is investigated. It is established that the growth rates of single crystals in a microwave field are an order of magnitude higher than obtained in other known techniques at comparable crystallization temperatures and supersaturations. For example, the growth rate of prismatic faces {100} of KH2PO4 crystals is as high as 11 mm/day at supersaturations of ~1.2%. The results obtained are discussed in the context of the effect of microwave radiation on the adsorption surface layers of crystals. Fine-grained phases of the salts under study are obtained by evaporation of the solvent.  相似文献

Some observations of growth hillocks and growth layers on the as-grown surfaces of potassium hydrogen tartrate (KHT) crystals obtained at 30 °C from aqueuos solutions of different supersaturations are reported and discussed. It is found that macrospirals, isolated growth hillocks, and growth layers are typical features observed on these crystals. Bunching of rectilinear growth layers originating from growth hillocks produced parallel macrosteps on the {010} faces. In certain cases, interaction of thick rounded layers of unequal height, emitted from neighbouring strong sources, gave rise to residual steps (pseudo-interlaced steps). Isolated growth hillocks produced by microbes were also observed.  相似文献

To elucidate the mechanism of nucleation and growth of filamentary crystals on the bipyramid faces of KH2PO4 (KDP) crystals from solution with the addition of Al(NO3)3 · 9H2O, the growth rates and transverse dimensions of the crystals were measured at various supersaturations, temperatures, and impurity concentrations. The dependences obtained can be interpreted with due regard for the competition between the intrinsic and impurity particles in the presence of Cabrera-Vermilyea stoppers.  相似文献

Initial stages of SiC crystal growth by Physical Vapor Transport method were investigated. The following features were observed: (a) many nucleation crystallization centres appeared on the seed surface during the initial stage of the growth, (b) at the same places many separate flat faces generated on the crystallization front, (c) the number of facets was dependent on the shape of the crystallization front and decreased during growth, (d) appearance of many facets lead to decrease of structural quality of crystals due to degradation of regions where crystallization steps from independent centres met. The results revealed that the optimal crystallization front should be slightly convex, which permits the growth of crystals with single nucleation centre and evolution of single facet on the crystallization front. The subjects of study were the shape and the morphology of growth interface. Defects in the crystallization fronts and wafers cut from the crystals were studied by optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) combined with KOH etching and X‐ray diffraction.

A physical model is proposed to describe the growth of regeneration surfaces (flat crystal surfaces that are not parallel to any possible faces). According to this model, the change in the growth rate of a regeneration surface during its evolution and the decrease in the number of subindividuals forming the growth front can be explained by the implementation of two types of geometric selection: within each subindividual (the absorption of rapidly growing faces by slowly growing ones) and between subindividuals (when subindividuals absorb each other). A numerical modeling of the growth of the regeneration surface (30.30.19) of potassium alum crystals showed quantitative agreement between the model proposed and the experimental data.  相似文献

The experimental results of the effect of concentration of Mn(II) ions on the growth kinetics of different faces of ammonium oxalate monohydrate single crystals from aqueous solutions at a constant temperature and different predefined supersaturations are described and discussed. It was observed that: (1) at a given supersaturation σ, Mn(II) ions lead to a decrease in the growth rates of different faces of AO crystals, (2) the growth of a particular face of the crystals occurs above a critical supersaturation σd but there is also another supersaturation barrier σ* when the rate abruptly increases with σ, (3) the values of σd and σ* increase with increasing concentration of the impurity, and (4) the values of σd depend on the growth kinetics of a face but those of σ* are independent of face growth kinetics. The experimental R(σ) data for different Mn(II) concentrations ci were analysed according to the model involving complex source of cooperating screw dislocations and concepts of instantaneous and time‐dependent impurity adsorption. It was found that: (1) for a given face the differential heat of adsorption Qdiff is higher during instantaneous impurity adsorption than that during time‐dependent adsorption, and (2) the values of Qdiff involved during instantaneous adsorption are related with face growth kinetics but those during time‐dependent adsorption are independent of face growth kinetics.  相似文献

Iso-epitaxial(epilayer)growth of n-octacosane crystals is reported. The morphology of the epilayers is in the form of triangular growth islands with or without truncature. Epilayer growth precedes spiral growth mechanism which occurs at medium and low supersaturations, respectively. The occurrence of triangular and truncated rhombic platelets is found to be a manifestation of growth at medium supersaturations.  相似文献

The results of a systematic study of growth morphology of potassium bichromate single crystals on seeds and by self-nucleation at different temperatures and supersaturations are presented. The observed growth morphology is analysed in the light of theoretical predictions. An increase in both growth temperature and supersaturation leads to a symmetrical morphology, and the transition from asymmetrical to symmetrical morphology is monotonous. The predicted sequence of morphological importance agrees only in the case of crystals grown at low temperatures and supersaturations.  相似文献

The dependence of crystal growth rate of L‐alanine on solution supersaturation was investigated by combining experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The experimental results show that lower supersaturated solution yields more elongated L‐alanine crystals along the c‐axis, i.e., the aspect ratio (c/b) of the crystal decreases with the increase of solution supersaturation, which is due to the higher supersaturation inducing a rise in the relative growth rate between the main side surface (the (120) surface) and the main end surface (the (011) surface). MD simulations on the two surfaces in contact with different supersaturated solutions revealed that the solute molecules tend to be more efficiently attached to the (011) surface than to the (120) surface at both supersaturations studied, as the interaction between the solute molecules and the L‐alanine molecules in the first layer of the (011) surface is stronger than that of the (120) surface. However, higher supersaturation leads to larger relative interaction energy between the (120) and (011) surfaces, suggesting an increase in the relative growth rate of the two surfaces (R(120)/R(011)) with supersaturation, which is in agreement with the experimental results.  相似文献

The growth kinetics of TGS crystals was studied at high supersaturations under the Curie temperature. The kinetics data proved that the crystal growth was mainly controlled by BCF surface diffusion model. The continuous growth was fitted to the growth rate data of (110) face. Its edge energy, Jackson factor, activity energies, kinetic coefficients were calculated.  相似文献

The relation between the growth shapes and supersaturations and/or supercoolings was investigated in the Na2S2O3 5H2O crystals: (i) The growth shapes changed from a hexagonal prismatic crystal, aggregate of platy crystals and to a spherulite with an increase of supersaturations and/or supercooloings. (ii) The deposition rate suddenly increased at a certain supersaturation and/or supercooling, where the growth shape changed from the hexagonal prism to the aggregate of platy crystals. (iii) The deposition rates of spherulites become higher with increasing the solute concentrations. (iv) The formation process of the spherulites were in situ observed by the Schlieren and/or Mach‐zehnder interferometer methods.  相似文献

Single crystals of stannic iodide (SnI4) havebeen grown using the controlled reaction between SnCl2 and KI by diffusion process in silica gel medium. Orange to reddish octahedral stannic iodide crystals up to 3–4 mm in size have been grown at room temperature. Optical studies have been made on the various surface structures of {111} faces of the asgrown crystals. On octahedral faces of these crystals, triangular-shaped hillocks with growth layers in the 〈110〉 directions have been observed. Occasionally, growth spirals on octahedral faces have also been reported. Close loops of growth fronts have been investigated and have been interpreted. It has been suggested that two-diemensional nucleation, spreading and pilling up of triangular growth layers is mainly responsible for the growth and occasionally the growth is due to screw dislocations. The implications are discussed.  相似文献

Surface morphology of the (100) face of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals which were grown at different supersaturations at 25 °C was investigated by in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM). Various AFM images of 2D nucleation under different growth conditions were presented. It is found that the growth of KDP is controlled by polynuclear nucleation mechanism at the high supersaturation. With reduction of the supersaturation, the growth velocity of 2D nuclei becomes very slow and shows typical anisotropy. It is found that the process of coalescence of 2D nuclei does not lead to defect. The experiments show that the growth mechanism for KDP at 25 °C changes between step flow and 2D nucleation in the supersaturation range of 4.5‐5%. The triangular nuclei which are close to equilateral triangle are observed in the experiment at the supersaturation σ = 6% for the first time, showing typical anisotropic growth. Through observing the dissolution of 2D nuclei, the dissolving process can be regarded as the reverse process of growth. We also find that the microcrystals landing on the surface at σ = 9% would grow and coalesce with each other and there is no observable defect in the coalescence. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The precipitation of lead sulphate was studied from 0.0001 to 0.01 M aqueous solutions (supersaturations 3 to 600) and from 20% aqueous ethanediol, methanol and ethanol solutions, in polypropylene beakers, at ambient temperature: the experimental techniques were conductivity measurements and optical microscopy. The precipitations were heterogeneously nucleated at low supersaturations and homogeneously nucleated at intermediate to high supersaturations. New crystal morphologies generally developed at some what higher supersaturations in the aqueous alcohol systems. The final crystal lengths at first increased with increasing initial metal salt concentration and then decreased with this parameter; the largest crystals at any concentration were obtained from solutions in which lead sulphate solubility was highest. The critical supersaturations (for the onset of homogeneous nucleation) increased from 36 (in water) to 50 (in 20% aqueous ethanol): the surface energies for the formation of nuclei correspondingly increased from 90 to 110 mJ m−2 in good agreement with the Nielsen-Söhnel relation. The nucleation and crystal growth processes are taking in an aqueous environment of similar water activity to that of the bulk solutions.  相似文献

The experimental conditions under which cadmium sulphide is grown from the vapour to form crystals having a (11.0) singular growth faces are calculated. This is done assuming that growth proceeds on these faces by one-dimensional surface nucleation. Calculations based on this assumption are compared with experimental observations on the habit of CdS, and the relationship between growth rate and supersaturation, and shown to be consistent with these.  相似文献
