Substrate-Induced Liquid Layering: A New Insight into the Heterogeneous Nucleation of Liquid Metals
Liquid layering, which is a general phenomenon adjacent to the solid substrates, is less understood for its role in heterogeneous nucleation. In this work, the structural features and dynamics of the liquid Al layers induced by the (0001) sapphire and the (0001) TiB2 substrates, respectively, are qu...
