Abstract
In situ observation of the surface morphology of {100} face of Potassi um Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP) crystals growing in solution was made wi th the use of Atomic Force Microscope. The slight movement of the step s connected with regeneration of the crystal surface has been detected for very low supersaturation. The height of the elementary steps has been established.
