Popis: Crystals of LGS, LGN, and LGT of the enantiomorphous crystal class 32 were grown by the Czochralski technique in Z-, X-, and Y-pulling directions. The as-grown crystals exhibit high structural perfection as confirmed by etching with orthophosphoric acid, revealing an etch pit density and hence a dislocation density of about 103 cm−2. The specific electric resistances and the optical activities of the crystals were measured.
