Hopper shape is a special type of crystal morphology. Hopper‐shaped crystals possess unique properties and show promise in many different applications. The understanding of how the building blocks (atoms, ions, and molecules) assemble into hopper‐shaped crystals and how the environmental factors influence the assembly process is critical to the properties and applications of hopper‐shaped crystals...
In article number 1908108, Wen Shang, Tao Deng, and co‐workers show that the building blocks of crystals tend to attach at certain sites on the crystal surfaces, and the growth rates of these sites will be larger than those at the other sites. The selective growth leads to interfacial instability, which also results in the growth of hopper‐shaped crystals.
