- Additional information
- In recognition of the highly significant scientific and technological importance of this paper, the first author received the Crystal Growth Young Scientist award in 2019. The methodology developed in this publication supported two early career grants funded by the Royal Society of Chemistry (Research Fund – ca. £4,000) and the Leverhulme Trust (Early Career Fellowship - ca. £70,000). This work was immediately taken up by other researchers, contributing to the fundamental understanding of ice nucleation. It is also influencing adjacent disciplines, including anti-icing and cryopreservation. This output also resulted in securing consultancy work with an engineering company.
