Journal ArticleDOI

Probing crystallization of calcium oxalate monohydrate and the role of macromolecule additives with in situ atomic force microscopy.

TL;DR: Growth inhibition by cationic macromolecules is negligible, further supporting an important role for proteins rich in anionic side chains in the regulation of kidney stone formation.
Book ChapterDOI

Hydrothermal Crystal Growth

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the experimental technique of hydrothermal crystal growth and provide a practical guide for use of the method, and to encourage its adoption, emphasizing experimental details and results rather than the theoretical aspects of crystal growth.

Formation of quartz overgrowths in the Penrith Sandstone (Lower Permian) of Northwest England as revealed by scanning electron microscopy

B. Waugh
- 01 Jan 1970 - 
TL;DR: The development of optically continuous quartz overgrowths is governed by the atomic structure and crystallographic orientation of the detrital quartz grains as mentioned in this paper, and growth is particularly rapid along the direction of the c-axis.

Illumination of vein quartz textures in a porphyry copper ore deposit using scanned cathodoluminescence: Grasberg Igneous Complex, Irian Jaya, Indonesia

TL;DR: In this article, electron microprobe trace-element analysis of vein quartz from the Grasberg Igneous complex in Irian Jaya, Indonesia, displays a wide range of features when observed using scanned cathodoluminescence imaging on the electron microscope.

Historical review of quartz crystal growth

TL;DR: The history of quartz crystal growth is reviewed from the origin to the industrialization in this article, where the developing process of growth techniques is divided into the following three stages: (1) The fundamental work based on the mineralogical genetic view point, which was performed in Italy during the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 20th centuries.
