Abstract
A versatile apparatus for optical investigations of phase transitions in plate-like crystalline samples in adjustable temperature gradients is described. It conveniently allows the generation, movement and obse rvation of phase boundaries. Some details of its application to invest igating phase transitions in lead phosphate and barium calcium titanat e are also given.
