First Claim
1. A method for growing a crystal in a crystallization reaction system comprising the steps of:
- targeting at least one participant in said crystallization reaction system with at least one spectral energy pattern to cause at least one of the formation, stimulation and stabilization of at least one component in said crystallization reaction system.

Abstract
This invention relates to novel methods for affecting, controlling and/or directing various crystal formation, structure formation or phase formation/phase change reaction pathways or systems by exposing one or more components in a holoreaction system to at least one spectral energy pattern. In a first aspect of the invention, at least one spectral energy pattern can be applied to a crystallization reaction system. In a second aspect of the invention, at lest one spectral energy conditioning pattern can be applied to a conditioning reaction system. The spectral energy conditioning pattern can, for example, be applied at a separate location from the reaction vessel (e.g., in a conditioning reaction vessel) or can be applied in (or to) the reaction vessel, but prior to other (or all) crystallization reaction system participants being introduced into the reaction vessel.

6. A method to affect a particular reaction pathway in a crystallization reaction with a spectral catalyst by augmenting a physical catalyst comprising the steps of:
-
duplicating at least a portion of a spectral pattern of a physical catalyst with at least one energy emitter source to form a catalytic spectral pattern; and
applying to the crystallization reaction system at least a portion of the catalytic spectral pattern at a sufficient intensity and for a sufficient duration to catalyze at least one reaction in the crystallization reaction system.
