Abstract

To elucidate the mechanism of nucleation and growth of filamentary crystals on the bipyramid faces of KH2PO4 (KDP) crystals from solution with the addition of Al(NO3)3 · 9H2O, the growth rates and transverse dimensions of the crystals were measured at various supersaturations, temperatures, and impurity concentrations. The dependences obtained can be interpreted with due regard for the competition between the intrinsic and impurity particles in the presence of Cabrera-Vermilyea stoppers.
