Heterogeneous Nucleation Mechanisms in Systems with Large Lattice Misfit Demonstrated by the Pb(<i>l</i>)/Cu(<i>s</i>) System

Our current understanding of heterogeneous nucleation has been largely confined to the classical nucleation theory (CNT) that was postulated over 100 years ago based on a thermodynamic approach. Further advances in heterogeneous nucleation research requires detailed knowledge of atomistic activities...
