The crystallisation rates of various low-index calcite surfaces are measured. A notable inhibition in the growth of the (00.1) surface is observed and a mechanism relating to the rotation of the carbonate ions is proposed to explain it. date: 2013-03-15 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jcrysgro.2012.12.027 vfaculties: VMPS vfaculties: VMPS oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_source: Scopus elements_id: 880131 doi: 10.1016/j.jcrysgro.2012.12.027 lyricists_name: Cote, Alexander lyricists_name: Duffy, Dorothy lyricists_id: ASCOT13 lyricists_id: DMDUF36 full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Crystal Growth volume: 367 pagerange: 110 - 114 issn: 0022-0248 citation: Darkins, R; Côté, AS; Duffy, DM; Freeman, CL; (2013) Crystallisation rates of calcite from an amorphous precursor in confinement.
