Abstract
Growth rate data of (101) faces of KDP crystals as a function of the relative supersaturation of the solution are analyzed on the basis of BURTON, CABRERA and FRANK surfaceβdiffusion model applied to the growth from solution. The characteristic constants in the BCF function are determined for 50Β°C. Approximate values of the free activation energies for dehydration, desorption, surface diffusion and entering the kinks from the surface are calculated. The experimental data previously obtained by MULLIN and AMATAVIVADHANA and by BELOUET are also discussed.

## Abstract Growth of bulk nonlinear optical (NLO) single crystals gained new significance with the advent of solidβstate laser sources for optoβelectronic applications. An optically transparent crystal of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) has been grown from aqueous solution along (001) plane w
By altering the concentration of silicate (SiO 3 2- ) impurity in the solution, a series of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals was obtained by the conventional temperature cooling and the rapid growth methods, respectively. It was observed that the presence of SiO 3 2-made KDP crystals t
