## Abstract Mixed crystals of potassium dihydrogen phosphate and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate were grown onto point seeds by the method of temperature reduction. It was found that the regeneration process of zβcut point seeds became more and more difficult with increasing KH~2~PO~4~ concentration

β¦ Synopsis
Mixed crystals of K 1-x (NH 4 ) x H 2 PO 4 (KADP) were grown from KDP (KH 2 PO 4 ) dominated mixed solutions with varying molar proportion of ADP (NH 4 H 2 PO 4 ) addition. It was found that, as the increase of ADP molar concentration, the growth rate along z-axis of KADP crystal decreased rapidly. The structure of KADP crystals was investigated by powder XRD and the lattice parameter was calculated. The results showed that the lattice parameter c of KADP crystal increased with the molar concentration of ADP. The optical homogeneity of grown KADP crystals was determined with a differential phase-shifting interferometry. Frequency dependences of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of KADP crystals were measured at room temperature (290 K). The dielectric constants of KADP crystals were almost invariant with the increase of frequency. In the region of 10 2 -10 4 Hz, the values of the dielectric loss reduced with the increase of frequency. The piezo-resonance coupling effect still exists in KADP crystals at room temperature, but shifted to low frequency band.
