Epitaxial Nucleation

Epitaxial Nucleation is a thermodynamic process of nucleation in which crystalline thin film islands form on a single-crystal substrate with a well-defined orientational relationship, such that the crystallographic alignment of the film is determined by the underlying substrate lattice, distinguishing it from random or polycrystalline nucleation mechanisms.
