Take a look at this recent article by Federico Caporaletti, Simone Napolitano and colleagues. Read the full article here: http://xlink.rsc.org...
Predicting how fast crystals grow at the free surface of molecular glasses
Organic glasses can crystallize at their free surfaces far more rapidly than in the bulk, a phenomenon that has challenged our understanding of glass dynamics for more than a decade. This behavior is commonly attributed to the enhanced molecular mobility present at interfaces, yet the microscopic origin of such flu
