Nucleation Rate

Nucleation Rate is the quantitative measure of the frequency at which stable nuclei form per unit volume per unit time during a phase transformation, distinguishing it from related kinetic parameters by specifically characterizing the initial stage of phase formation in processes such as solidification, condensation, or thin film growth.
