Morphological growth criterion for faceted to non-faceted transition in pure materials

A criterion to explain the morphological growth transition from faceted to non-faceted (f-nf) morphology in the case of directional solidification is presented for pure materials. The criterion is based on the number of atomic layers at the solid–liquid interface and allows a foreknowledge of the so...
