While melt undercooling is often observed during solidification the control of undercooling and nucleation is difficult due to the numerous possible heterogeneous sites present in even high purity melts. The identification of active nucleation sites has been a continuing challenge that requires developing well planned experimentation. In samples with well-defined and controlled undercooling, the identification can be established for a number of the active sites and mechanisms that can act to catalyze nucleation. The sites and mechanisms that have been identified involve primary phases developed during cooling of alloy melts, liquid-added particle interfaces being modified (e.g. by adsorption or reaction) creating a particle type independent nucleation potency, dissolved impurities precipitating out of the melt at high undercooling or acting to alter local atomic arrangements in the melt to catalyze nucleation and nucleation sites resulting from residual solid preserved in cavities in inclusions or surface coatings. Recent advances in clarifying the structure of liquids reveal local atomic arrangements such as short range order, medium range order and cluster structures, but the role of these local heterogeneities on the undercooling and crystallization behavior is incompletely understood at present.
