The crystalline state of matter is characterized by a distinct structural rigidity and virtual resistance to deformation (i.e. changes of shape and/or volume). Most crystalline solids have high values...

The crystal growth process starts with the nucleation stage. Several atoms or molecules in a supersaturated vapor or liquid start forming clusters; the bulk free energy of the cluster is less than that of the vapor or liquid.

How do crystals form and how do they grow? Crystals start growing by a process called nucleation. Nucleation can either start with the molecules themselves or with the help of some solid matter already in the solution... ... This when this "protocrystal" (a sort of pre-crystal) becomes a nucleation site.
