摘要
本文简要论述了炼丹术的兴起、发展、衰落,并试图从晶体学的角度阐述中国古代炼丹术对本草学、矿物学、近代化学及气相晶体生长的贡献。通过对古人相当分散记载的历史文献的搜集、整理,展示我国古代的气相晶体生长的概貌,论述了炼丹术和气相晶体生长的关系,探讨了炼丹术衰落的原因,最终得出气相晶体生长起源于中国古代的炼丹术,银珠(灵砂)是最早采用气相法生长的人工晶体这一结论。
Origin, development, and decline of alchemy in China were briefly reviewed. In this paper the contribution of Chinese ancient alchemy to Chinese material medica, mineralogy, modem chemistry, and vapor-growth of crystals was presented and discussed. After collection and collation of scraps of ancient references about alchemy, the authors gave a general China. The relationship between alchemy and vapor- picture of vapor-growth of crystal in ancient time in growth of artificial crystals was explored, and the reason of decline of Chinese alchemy was given. It is concluded that vapor-growth of artificial crystals originated from Chinese ancient alchemy and vermilion （artificials cinnabaris ）, and was the earliest artificial crystal grown through a vapor-growth method.
