For materials capable of attaining two phases, the free energy potential is a non-convex functional of the state variables. Absolute and relative minimizers of this functional are related to stable and metastable states, respectively. Metastability explains the undercooling required for solid nucleation.

We observe a new wetting layer growth mechanism at the liquid/vapor surface of the critical mixture acetone+hexadecane. After spinodal decomposition of the bulk liquid, a metastable surface state forms. This metastable state is consistent with critical adsorption and persists until a wetting film or droplets of the lower phase are nucleated at the ...

This chapter discusses nucleation, which is central to all types of crystallization. Nucleation is the process of creating a new solid phase from a supersaturated homogenous mother phase. The chapter derives a kinetic expression for the rate of nucleation and then extends the concepts involved to show simultaneous nucleation of two phases in a ...
