This contribution seeks to introduce the principal and salient facts of polymeric growth, relate these to properties, both known and potential and to outline the current state of understanding.

Crystal Growth and Geosciences,fferent mineral assemblages, different morphologies and perfections of crystals, and different textures of rocks or ores appear. Therefore, it is essential to understand the fundamentals of crystal growth mechanisms so as to properly analyze the genesis of minerals, rocks and ores, which is one of the main subject of geosciences.

Nucleation,the overall mechanism is dominated by the thermodynamic properties of the embryos of the new phase, it can be (and has been, first) considered by the methods of heterophase thermodynamics. This is also the way nucleation is taught in common courses and manuals. However, one must be aware that every

The vapor growth of bulk materials is typically conducted in closed or semi-closed systems. If the vapor pressure of a material at a desired growth temperature exceeds 10. torr or so, it may be efficiently grown by Physical Vapor
