5. Phase Transitions, Metastability and Nucleation Nucleation: An activated process; transforming a metastable phase to a thermodynamically stable phase; formation of the first embryos of new phase — Most first-order phase transitions occur via nucleation Homogeneous nucleation: In the absence of impurity, surface etc.; achieved thermally; ideal case Heterogeneous nucleation: Impurity, surface, grain boundary etc. provide the place for nucleation site; more practical Goal of Nucleation theory: Rate at which embryos grow to a critical size
