Scientists Just Challenged a Century-Old Theory of How Crystals Form

3D atomic imaging of advanced materials provides new insights into transitions such as liquids freezing into solids. For nearly a century, scientists have relied on classical nucleation theory to explain how phase transitions such as freezing and condensation get started. The theory describes how sm...
