Formation of regular zigzag branch of CsCl crystallites on glass substrate: A new lateral growth mechanism leading to long-range ordering

Spontaneous Formation of Sinuous and Wavy Micropatterns with Helical Growth of CuSO4·5H2O in Polymer Matrix

“…Crystal growth is regarded as an important phenomenon for the bottom-up approach to fabricate particular periodic patterns. For instance, several kinds of dendritic structures were formed through branching growth of inorganic crystals in a diffusion field. − Thus, the controlled crystal growth has potential as a useful pattern formation technique. Here, novel sinuous and wavy patterns are shown to be spontaneously produced by specific crystal growth in the polymer matrix.…”

Dendrite growth of energetic material RDX

“…The current investigations in fractal field have focused on inorganic salts [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10], metals [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21], metallic compounds [22][23][24][25], alloys [26][27][28], and superpolymers [29][30][31]. Various fractal structures are obtained through controlling the crystallization conditions.…”
