Morphology of the {100} cleavage faces of L-arginine phosphate monohydrate single crystal before and after its growth at 40°C at a supersaturation of 0.031 has been studied. Monolayer and multilayer steps are found on the original cleaved surfaces. The regrowth morphology varies in nature with...

Dislocation growth and microcrystals are investigated on the {110} faces of MMTC crystals grown from aqueous solution. Growth of MMTC crystals occurs in elementary steps (~ 0.81 nm), introduced by both simple and complex dislocation sources. The bright particles with regular sizes and shapes are...

Single crystals of nonlinear optical material, L-arginine trifluoroacetate (abbreviated as LATF), were grown from an aqueous solution by the low temperature solution growth method. The cell parameters of the grown crystal were determined by the X-ray powder diffraction analysis. Atomic force...
