This study reports the first application of dynamic light scattering to observations of crystal growth of calcium carbonate from a supersaturated solution. Crystal size distributions around the critical nucleus radius (approximate to 2 nm at Omega = 18) were measured in La-free and 5 mu M La-doped conditions. In the former, the intensity of scattered light increased smoothly and particle size increased with time. In the case of La-doped condition, the total scattering volume of particles was smaller, and grew very slowly compared with the La-free condition. These results show that the inhibiting effect of La3+ on calcium carbonate occurred from the initial stage of crystal growth.
