Growth of ice discs from the vapor and the mechanism of habit change of ice crystalsIce crystals nucleated on a liquid nitrogen cooled glass fiber grow first as thin disks which subsequently transform to plates and columns as they thicken and extend to regions of higher supersaturation. Crystals are often found to be dislocation-free, which suggests that growth results from surface nucleation, the habit depending on preferential nucleation in an adsorbed multilayer on basal or prism face.
