Abstract

The crystal growth morphology of modifications IV, III, II, and I during the IV ↔ III ↔ II ↔ I polymorphic transformations in Rb0.975Cs0.025NO3 has been investigated by optical microscopy. The equilibrium temperatures between phases IV and III (T 0 = 393 ± 0.5 K), III and II (T 0 = 421 ± 0.5 K), and II and I (T 0 = 497 ± 0.5 K) of the crystal studied have been determined. It is established that these transformations are of the single crystal ↔ single crystal type and occur with the formation and growth of new-crystal nuclei in crystalline matrices.
