Popis: Crystallization is ubiquitous. It is evident in natural processes such as biomineralization and gem formation, and is important in industrial processes both as a purification step and in the production of materials with specific properties, including drug polymorphs, cocrystals, mesocrystals, quasicrystals, quantum dots and other inorganic nanocrystals. Consequently it is essential to gain greater understanding of the process to be able to elicit more control over its outcome.
