Abstract
We describe a particular type of defect in KDP that consists of orient ed chains of liquid inclusions. Using optical microscopy and X-ray top ography we show that these inclusions are not directly formed by dislo cations. The results of in situ atomic force microscopy show that holl ow channels are stable during growth and that they can be caused by in clusion of foreign particles.
