Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid material, whose constituent atoms, molecules, or ions are arranged in an orderly repeating pattern extending in all three spatial dimensions. The scientific study of crystals and crystal formation is crystallography. The process of crystal formation via mechanisms of crystal growth is called crystallization or solidification. The word crystal is derived from the ancient Greek word ???sta???? (krustallos), which had the same meaning, but according to the ancient understanding of crystal. At root it means anything congealed by freezing, such as ice.[1] The word once referred particularly to quartz, or "rock crystal".

Most metals encountered in everyday life are polycrystals. Crystals are often symmetrically intergrown to form crystal twins.

The process of forming a crystalline structure from a fluid or from materials dissolved in the fluid is often referred to as crystallization. In the ancient example referenced by the root meaning of the word crystal, water being cooled undergoes a phase change from liquid to solid beginning with small ice crystals that grow until they fuse, forming a polycrystalline structure. The physical properties of the ice depend on the size and arrangement of the individual crystals, or grains, and the same may be said of metals solidifying from a molten state.

Which crystal structure the fluid will form depends on the chemistry of the fluid, the conditions under which it is being solidified, and also on the ambient pressure. While the cooling process usually results in the generation of a crystalline material, under certain conditions, the fluid may be frozen in a noncrystalline state. In most cases, this involves cooling the fluid so rapidly that atoms cannot travel to their lattice sites before they lose mobility. A noncrystalline material, which has no long-range order, is called an amorphous, vitreous, or glassy material. It is also often referred to as an amorphous solid, although there are distinct differences between crystalline solids and amorphous solids most notably, the process of forming a glass does not release the latent heat of fusion.

July 31, 2009

The crystalline lens is the main part of the focusing mechanism of human eye. The lens which is clear and transparent becomes cloudy and opaque with age and thereby hampering normal vision. Any opacity in the crystalline lens, which leads to decreased vision, is Cataract. Aging is the most common cause for Cataract. Proteins of the eye get reduced with the age and this leads to Cataract. Other causes include congenital and developmental anomalies, trauma, inflammation of the eye and metabolic diseases like Diabetes and Hypothyroidism.

22. Marble From Olympicstone
July 31, 2009

Marble is metamorphosed limestone, composed of fairly pure calcite (a crystalline form of calcium carbonate, CaCO3). It is extensively used for sculpture, as an building material, and in many other applications. This metamorphic process causes a complete recrystallization of the original rock into an interlocking mosaic of calcite and/or dolomite crystals. The temperatures and pressures necessary to form marble usually destroy any fossils and sedimentary textures present in the original rock. Pure white marble is the result of metamorphism of very pure limestones. The characteristic swir... (read more)

June 07, 2009

Cataract is very common in old age. A cataract is a clouding that develops in the crystalline lens of the eye or in its envelope, varying in degree from slight to complete opacity and obstructing the passage of light. Although related to old age, it can sometimes be caused due to eye injury, exposure to radiation or may be a birth defect in children. The main reason normally found behind cataract formation is gradual discoloration or protein clumping. They commonly affect both eyes, but it is not uncommon for a cataract in one eye to advance more rapidly. Some factors that may lead to developm... (read more)
