Ia. Kasatkin et Wa. Franke, GROWTH-RATE ANISOTROPY OF THE K-2(S,CR)O-4 MIXED-CRYSTALS GROWN FROM AQUEOUS-SOLUTION, Crystal research and technology, 33(3), 1998, pp. 435-439
The ratio of growth rates of the K-2(S,Cr)O-4 crystals in the [100] an
d [001] directions (the anisometry coefficient) is proportional to the
initial effective supersaturation of the solutions from which the cry
stals were grown. The values of the factors of asymmetry and excess of
distribution of the crystal anisometry coefficient are affected by th
e composition of solution. The change in the values of these factors i
s caused by the change in the value of the initial supersaturation of
solution according to the specific features of the solubility diagram.
