NaCl crystals grown from solution with small concentrations of CdCl 2 as impurity have a shape determined by {111} faces instead of the normal {100} morphology. Optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy and surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD) observations show the {111} surface to be atomically smooth without surface reconstruction. The growth proceeds by monomolecular and higher steps, that...
For a detailed understanding of crystal growth, the atomic-scale structure of the growing interface must be known. While such knowledge is available in vacuum environments, this is not the case if the crystal grows from a solution, melt or solid. X-ray diffraction is one of the few techniques that can be applied for this purpose and it is starting to provide information on the structure of both sides...
