Foreword
An old joke states that physicists apply good techniques to poorly characterized substances‚
while chemists work with goodsubstances making use of poor techniques. Nowadays‚ biol-
ogists and biochemists also work with materials poorly characterized because of their com-
plexity.Nevertheless‚emerging now and reflected in this book is an era in which high-level
techniques are applied to chemically well-controlled substances. The authors provide an
excellent collection of fascinating stories on what happens at interfaces betweencrystalline
materials and solutions. Scanning atomic force‚tunneling‚ and verticalinterferometric mi-
croscopies‚ modern optics‚ grazing X-ray diffraction‚ and molecular dynamic simulations
in ionic systems are the major tools that the authors have applied and that have revealed
the processes and interactions that people only dreamed of tackling half a century ago. The
authors pay attention to the essential“know-how” of all thesetechniques. Certainly‚ such a
book would not have been possible 20 or even 10 years ago.
This collection of articles reflects the breakthroughs that are happening in under-
standing surface pheonomena in chemically complex systems—crystals and other solid
surfaces—in contactwith mainly aqueous solutions containing ions of major components
and additives to be adsorbed—from to protein ions‚ to viruses and antibodies. The
last couple of decades brought about significant progress in understanding “tailor-made
impurities” on the stereo-chemical level. This book reflects further steps towards more
detailed quantitative physico-chemical insights. Inorganic crystal growth‚ dissolution‚ ad-
sorption‚ nucleation in connection with specific crystal surface structures are the major
subjects of the articles collected in Volume I. Visualization of structural details of viruses‚
protein crystals and formation of the latter‚ properties of “soft” biologically related objects
and surfaces‚ like membranes‚ protein molecules immobilized for analyses‚ probing their
structure and properties‚ and processes in formation of emulsion droplets provide a second
group of objects and phenomena. This group is covered in Volume II. Here‚ too‚ crystal
growth and adsorption are the key physico-chemical issues.
The demands to monitor environment‚ to create new nanoelectronics‚ and to bring more
rationale to the endless ocean of exciting but still spotty findings in biology and medicine
provide long-term and strong driving forces to move from art to science in all these areas.
Yes‚ the general framework of crystal growth and surfacescience is now reaching its matu-
rity. Unfortunately‚ existence of this framework does not yet mean quantitative predictive
power‚ especially for the chemically complex systems‚ that are in our hands. We still have
a long way to go to achieve the aimed spirit through precisequantitative knowledge from
physics to chemistry and—which is a much more difficult task—to biology. This book
provides a timely step in that direction.
On a more specific note‚ this bookreflects the revival of an interest in crystal growth
from solutions. It was boosted about two decades ago by needs to obtain crystals for non-
