摘要
Electrocrystallization phenomena are considered and basic thermodynamic and kinetic concepts related to the electrochemical nucleation and growth are defined and discussed in details. Theoretical and experimental findings related to the stationary and non-stationary nucleation kinetics, growth of single two-and three-dimensional crystals as well as underpotential deposition phenomena and spatial distribution of clusters are reviewed and the reader is referred to suitable sources of reliable information on the most important subjects concerned.
