I am very new in crystallography and I'm just reading on microseeding techniques. There are so many terms on crystallography that I don't understand and before I actually do seeing, I hope I can grasp the general concept of seeding and some terms on crystallography. If anyone can shed a light on this that would be great.
This Teaching and Learning Package on phase diagrams and solidification might be a useful place to start learning about phase separation and the thermodynamic reasons behind it:

You might also find TLPs on the same site that help with other aspects of crystallography.
May I suggest you the reading first some classical books on industrial crystallization? Good authors that surely your library have are: Mullin, Mersmann, Grootscholten, Myerson, among others All of books involve crystallization in the name: Industrial crystallization, Crystallization, etc. I think that will be easier to understand papers.
thank you silaz and phillip for you great suggestions! I'll be looking them now. so much to learn :)
