We report measurements of the initial growth and subsequent transient response of dendritic crystals of ammonium chloride grown from supersaturated aqueous solution. Starting from a small, nearly spherical seed held in unstable equilibrium, we lower the temperature to initiate growth. The growth speed and tip radius approach the same steady state values independent of initial seed size. We then...

The crystals of [WS (CuNCS) ] anion have been isolated from CH ,CI solution and examined by X-ray structural analysis as well as by IR spectroscopy. The unit cell is monoclinic with a= 14.3796(13), b= 18.039(1 I), c= 22.5956(23)& P= 96.053(8)', space group P2,/n (14), Z= 4. The crystal structure was refined by the least-squares calculations to a final R-value of 0.0398(Rw= 0.0443) for 2777 u...

semiconductor nanoparticles exhibit size dependent properties due to quantum confinement effect that arenot present in their bulk counterparts. in this work, extremely fine and pure sno2 nanoparticles of ~1.1nm size were synthesized by a solution process, in which amorphous precipitate of sno2 was crystallizedby microwave heating. the particles sizes varied from ~1.1 to ~2.7 nm. by xrd analysis...
