β¦ Synopsis
A review is given of the various crystallization morphologies in metal-insulator mixtures. Granular structures have high threshold values while random ones obey the rule of Sher and Zallen. Annealing of amorphous mixtures leads to a number of new, diffusion limited, morphologies, including a "dense branching morphology" colony and a metal, single crystal, DLA like structure growing in the amorphous matrix.

## Abstract A general, quantitative model has been developed that provides fundamental understanding of the metalβinduced crystallization (MIC) of amorphous semiconductors. Interface thermodynamics has been shown to play a decisive role for the whether or not occurrence of MIC. The model has been e
