The Vitreous State

Abstract

This division of the phase formation process into nucleation and growth gives the possibility to investigate separately various specific features of these two particular stages of the process of phase transformation. However, such a division is in some respect artificial since it separates into different parts one process which in fact involves both nucleation and growth of clusters generally taking place simultaneously in the same volume of the melt. Thus we have to solve the problem of how the knowledge obtained in exploring separately nucleation and growth can be interconnected in a subsequent step to give a satisfactory description of the process of overall crystallization or of the overall course of phase transformations, in general. The solution of this problem is addressed in the present chapter by an outline of the Kolmogorov-Avrami theory of overall crystallization. Based on these concepts, kinetic criteria of glass-formation are developed and their relation to different historically established criteria of glass-formation is discussed in detail.
