DescriptionPlot of classical nucleation theory prediction for the free energy of a nucleus as a function of radius.png |
English: The green curve is the total (Gibbs if this is at constant pressure) free energy as a function of radius. Shown is the free energy barrier, Δ G*, and radius at the top of the barrier, r*. This total free energy is a sum of two terms. The first is a bulk term, which is plotted in red. This scales with volume and is always negative. The second term is an interfacial term, which is plotted in black. This is the origin of the barrier. It is always positive and scales with surface area. |
