An Overview on Atomistic Mechanisms of Heterogeneous Nucleation
Our current understanding of heterogeneous nucleation has been dominated by the classical nucleation theory (CNT) with little progress of significance being made in past 100 years. In recent years under the financial support from EPSRC for the LiME Research Hub, we have made substantial progress on...
