【 摘 要 】

The rapid crystallization of KH₂PO₄ (KDP) from solution is demonstrated at a rate up to â‰�?7.5 mm/day along [100] and 22 mm/day along [001] in a crystallizer of 5 l capacity, using accelerated crucible rotation technique (ACRT) and simulated platform geometry for controlling the hydrodynamic conditions. On an experimental basis we have grown the crystals up to 40 Ã�? 43 Ã�? 66 mm³ size in about 3 days. Comparative analysis of the main structural and optical properties of crystals grown by conventional and rapid crystallization technique, is discussed.
