Graduate Wulff construction for surface energy dependent on depth
Thank you for the answer and sorry for the misleading (I expected that term "depth" is vague). I talk about surfaces, not slabs. The surfaces with same orientation (a⋅h,a⋅i,a⋅k) for a=1...N has different γa, whereas application of usual Wulff relation requires γa=const for the same surface...- decart

Graduate Wulff construction for surface energy dependent on depth
Thank you for the answer! Yes,I agree with you. But how should I choose the γi(rj)? Should I choose maximal or minimum value (which will depend on P,T, etc.), or something else?- decart

Graduate Wulff construction for surface energy dependent on depth
Hello, Using surface energy dependence on surface orientation it is possible to predict equilibrium crystal shape by applying Wulff construction. But I faced the problem when the surface energy depends not only on the surface orientation but also on the surface depth or surface termination and...- decart
