Springer Handbook of Crystal Growth

The Springer Handbook of Crystal Growth brings together the science and technology of growing crystals, defect characterization and techniques, and understanding the defect formation including defects modelling. This unique effort will provide users with fundamental understanding of crystal growth and defects with the latest instrumentation/ techniques available both for crystal fabrication and defects. Understanding in this rapidly advancing field deals with three main areas: Crystal growth and defect formation, growth methods, and various techniques used in characterization.
