description

Abstract Homogeneous solid solution crystals are needed for studying the behaviour of systems with a glass state or incommensurate phases. A simple solution growth procedure is described. It is based on a temperature difference growth method with thermally enforced convection and the use of equilibrated solid and liquid solutions. First results of its application to the [(CH3)4N]2ZnCl 4−xBrx and the Rb1−x(NH4)xH2PO4 systems are presented.
