Thermodynamics, Origin, and Control of Defects

Spray chill encapsulation of flavors within anhydrous erythritol crystals

“…cyclodextrin complexation), and solidsolutions (in which guest molecules are accommodated within lattice sites of a host crystal). The presence of droplet or void inclusions within single crystals is common both in geology and various crystallization industries (Rudolph, 2008). For example, Lowenstern (1995) stated that "as many as scores of inclusions" are often found within a single quartz crystal.…”

Fundamentals and engineering of defects

“…refs. [1][2][3][4][5]. Thus, in the present chapter only an excerpt of the most important facts is given.…”

Universal approach for nonstoichiometry determination in binary chemical compounds

“…Nowadays, a lot of problems of crystal growth technology deal with so called structure sensitive properties . These are the properties which strongly depend on point defect concentration.…”
