Abstract :
The influence of concentrative and convective flows of the alkaline solution crystal growing medium on the shape, morphology of the surfaces, internal structure, growth rate, macroscopic defects, and inclusion density is investigated. Dependence of these characteristics on the convective flow direction and the crystal´s place within the flow is determined
