Bulk single crystals of SrPt3P have been grown for the first time by a self-flux method at 2 GPa and 1500 {\deg}C using the cubic-anvil, high-pressure and high-temperature technique. The grown black crystals were found to have either a…
The growth of SrRuO$_3$ (SRO) thin film with high-crystallinity and low residual resistivity (RR) is essential to explore its intrinsic properties. Here, utilizing the adsorption-controlled growth technique, the growth condition of initial…
MgO single crystals with diameters between 3.5 and 5 mm and lengths up to 40 mm were grown by the optical floating zone technique (OFZ). Despite challenging material properties such as the high melting point of 2825 {\deg}C, very high…
By varying the parameters controlling the growth of crystals, including the thermodynamic variables, such as temperature, pressure, and reagent composition and the kinetic factors, namely reaction time and cooling rate, we found the most…
An optically high-quality single crystal of sodium mesitylene sulfonate crystal was successfully grown by a slow evaporation method using methanol as solvent at room temperature. Single-crystal XRD has characterized the material and belongs…
Thorough mixing of the starting materials is the first step of a crystal growth procedure. This holds true for almost any standard technique, whereas the intentional separation of educts is considered to be restricted to a very limited…

Solution growth of single crystals from high temperature solutions often involves the separation of residual solution from the grown crystals. For many growths of intermetallic compounds, this separation has historically been achieved with…
When calcium titanate crystals are grown from stoichiometric melts, they crystallize in the cubic perovskite structure. Upon cooling to room temperature they undergo subsequent phase transitions to tetragonal and orthorhombic modifications.…
