Why nucleation?
It is important in the processesin the atmosphere like creation of clouds.
The nucleation is of a great importance for the species living under extremal conditions like polar fishes (Arctic Cod is on the figure), insects or plants. It must be prevented or inhibited.

How does it freez?
• We investigate homogeneous nucleation rates.
• The solid phase embryos are created spontaneous in the liquid phase.
• If the embryo reaches a critical size then it continues to grow. If the critical size is not reached then it shrinks.
G is an energy of formation of a critical germ

Freezing of water
Creation of the critical nucleus leading to freezing. of waterwith 512 molecules.Computation by Matsumoto,Saito and Ohmine, Nature,Vol. 416, 2002

Nucleation statistics
• Freezing process in a bulk volume is a stochastic process and it is described by the Poisson distribution
f
dNJV N
dt
J is the rate constant of the freezing process
![Page 7: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What do we need for evaluating of J?
• The nucleation rate J could be estimated from the equation
where V is the freezing volume and t is the nucleation time, N0 is the number of all droplets and Nu is the number of unfrozen droplets.
• Thus we need to estimate V and t from the experiment.

Electrodynamical trap and scattered light(Experimental part)
• Electrodynamical trap
• Optical setup and Mie-Scattering
• Measurement
![Page 9: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Naked Trap
The „hearth“ of an experimental setup is the inner chamber with ring electrodes.
![Page 10: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Potential in the trap
Voltage in the trap has a form of
0 cos DCU U t U
This gives us a time dependent field with a zero potential in the middle of the trap. The droplet moves on the Lisajous curve but forour purposes it is stable.
![Page 11: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Setup
![Page 12: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Creation and trapping of the droplet
• The quality of the droplet is controled by stroboscope effect. The droplet injection frequency is synchronized with the frequency of the AC voltage in the trap.
• Usual droplet diameter varies between 120-30 micrometers
![Page 13: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mie Scattering
• number of Mie stripes is proportional to the diameter of the drop
• if the drop is liquid then the laser light has the same polarization as before the interaction with the drop
• if the droplet freezes then the laser light will become depolarized

The rates of homogeneous nucleation(Data processing)
Nucleation rate J is the slope of the logarithmic equation for Nu/N0

Factors influencing the measurements
• The diameters of the generated droplets are not constant • Evaporation

The rates of homogeneous nucleation for water
![Page 19: The Homogeneous Nucleation Rates of Supercooled Aqueous Non-Electrolytic Mixtures SET for Europe August 2005 Brno Freie Universitaet Berlin Department.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5517afb15503460e6e8b61c9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Homogeneous nucleation rates
A concentration dependency of themixture on the supercooling for agiven value of J.
• the distribution of the clusters of the mixture molecules probably do not influence the linearity or they are statisticaly homogeneous mixed
