"Revealing the Milestone Discovery of Crystal Formation Secrets"
University of Houston researcher Peter Vekilov has published groundbreaking research revealing a new two-step process in crystal growth, challenging old theories and setting a new direction for future technological developments in the field. By using state-of-the-art experimental techniques, Vekilov discovered that incorporation into kinks may occur in two steps divided by an intermediate state, which could influence the detailed shapes of crystals found in nature and guide the search for solvents and additives that stabilize the intermediate state to slow down the growth of undesired polymorphs.
