Abstract

ZTS crystals have been grown by the solution method. The usual habit of the crystals has been identified and dislocation etching on the three major habit planes, (100), (010) and (001), has been carried out. The Vickers microhardness of these planes, its applied load dependence and anisotropy have been studied. (100) has been found to be the hardest of the three planes. The surface anisotropy of hardness of the respective planes has been explored and the hard and soft directions have been identified.
