Description

Book Synopsis
This book gives a systematic overview on the scientific fundamentals of crystal growth from the classical phenomenological description to the recent theoretical contributions of statistical physics such as studies on surface roughening and on the pattern formation in the diffusion-limited growth.The book emphasizes physical concepts as well as mathematical details, and is intended to serve as lecture notes for postgraduate courses.

Table of Contents
Ideal growth laws; statistical mechanics of surface; kinetics-limited growth; diffusion-limited growth - pattern formation; appendices - more on surface roughening, advance rate of a circular step, advance velocity of a spiral step, parabolic coordinate, dendritic growth, eutectic growth theory by Jackson and Hunt.
