Abstract
This short article reviewed the discovery of the reversed crystal growth route. This non-classic crystal growth mechanism has so far been found in several material systems, such as zeolites, perovskites, and more recently organic crystals. It has been found that formation mechanism of polyhedral crystal morphology is not a simple issue. It may be kinetically controlled or thermodynamically controlled. It may even controlled by some unknown factors.
