Abstract:Crystallization process is essentially a phenomenon of periodic arrangement of the constituent ions of a given material obtaining a crystalline state. There are many methods of crystal growth. Controlled solidification in a crucible of a molten material is one of the most used method. First used by Bridgman [Bridgman, 1925], improved by Stockbarger [Stockbarger, 1949] this technique is used successfully (about 40% of production of artificial crystals) because it is a simple technology and does not require comp… Show more
