Abstract
The paper describes optical techniques and methods used to study growth mechanisms and phenomena occurring on multiple faces of real bulk crystals grown from aqueous and organic solutions. Using examples of ionic KDP and molecular trans-stilbene crystals, it shows how in-situ and ex-situ surface observations can be applied to identify growth structures characteristic for the dislocation, two-dimensional (2D), and 3D cluster deposition mechanisms. Results are analyzed and applied to understanding of defects origins and methods for their elimination in practical growth of large, high optical quality crystals.
