Emerald (3BeO.Al2O3.6SiO2 : Cr3+) single crystals were crystals were grown by reflux method of temperature gradient in the flux solution of Li2O-MoO3-V2O5 system. The composition of flux materials were 3 mole ratio of MoO3-V2O5/Li2O, subtituted 0.2 mole% of K2O, Na2O, Nb2O5 etc to Li2O content, solved 10-15% of beryl to flux quantity and doped 1% of Cr2O3 to emerald amount. Those of mixing were melted at 110$0^{\circ}C$ in Pt containers of the 3 zone furnace of melt-growth-return to circulate continniously, specially it has been grown large emerald single crystal when thermal fluctuation was treated for 2hrs of once time a day at 1050-95$0^{\circ}C$ in growth zone, substitutional solid solution effect of Cr+3 ion for Al+3 to the growth of emerald single crystal was good. Emerald single crystals were c(0001) hexagonal crystal face of preferencial growth direction and m(1010) post side. When it had been durated for 5 months emerald single crystals of the firet size of 0.6mm thickness of seed crystal were grown 32$\times$65mm(c x m) of maximum size and 6.2mm thickness.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the crystal growth onto enamel mineral and synthetic hydroxyapatite seeds in media resembling the enamel fluid composition. Effects of fluoride at low concentrations on the precipitation were also examined in a benchtop crystal growth model adopting a miniaturized reaction column. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), as well as chemical analyses, were employed for characterization of both seed materials before and after experimentation. Remarkable findings were that (1) both biological and synthetic seeds at the same total surface areas yielded rather similar precipitation rates at all levels of fluoride concentration in solution and (2) the precipitation rate was accelerated in a manner depending on fluoride concentrations in media. FTIR differential analysis disclosed that the precipitating phase was characterized as poorly crystallized apatite, which incorporated subtle carbonate. Most of the fluoride ions in soution were readily incorporated into crystals. The overall results support the view that the seeded crystal growth model is of value to gain insight into the mechanism of enamel crystal growth under fluoride regimens.

$YbFeCoO_4$ single crystal was grown by floating zone method. The atmospheric condition of the growth was controlled in air and the growth rate was 1~2 mm/hr. After melting the feed rod of the composition of $YbFeCoO_4$, $YbFeCoO_4$ was decomposed to $YbFeCoO_4$ and CoO phase in the initial state of the growth. The liquid composition, however, changed to the direction of the eutectic point along the liquidus line and then stopped at the point in which $YbFeCoO_4$ single crystal could be grown. The growth direction of the crystal was preferred orientation [110], perpendicular to the c-axis in the hexagonal system due to using the polycrystalline seed.

6H-SiC single crystals were successfully grown by the self-designed sublimation apparatus and the optimum growth condition was established. The grown SiC crystals were about 33mm in diameter and 10mm in length. Carrier concentration and doping type of undopped 6H-SiC wafer grown by sublimation method were 1016∼1017/㎤ and n-type Crystallinity of grown 6H-SiC wafer was better than of Acheson seed by data of Raman spectroscopy and Double Crystal XRD. We continue to characterize the grown 6H-SiC wafer in more detail and so we will grow the high-quality 6H-SiC single crystal wafer.

The hydrothermal growth of $GaPO_{4}$ Single Crystals was carried out by the horizontal temperature gradient method. The most promising solvents for the crystal growth of $GaPO_{4}$ are $H_{3}PO_{4}$ and HCl solutions. Single crystals have been hydothermally grown at temperatures over the range $210-290^{\circ}C$ in these solutions with seed crystals. The glowth rates in HCl solution were higher than that for comparable conditions in $H_{3}PO_{4}$ solution. Morphologies of crystals grown at temperatures below $200^{\circ}C$ tended to be bounded by small major rhombohedral(10$\bar{1}$1) faces. In the temperature range from 200 to $430^{\circ}C$, the single crystals have morphologies bounded by prism (10$\bar{1}$0), small major rhombohedral(10$\bar{1}$1) and minor rhombohedral(01$\bar{1}$1) faces at the early stage, and grew with well developed basal(0001) faces by increasing the growth temperature.

Single crystal of $CdIn_2Te_4$ were grown by the Bridgman method without using seed crystals. From photocurrent measurements, its was found that three peaks, A, B, and C, correspond to the instrinsic transition from the valence band states of ${\Gamma}_7$(A), ${\Gamma}_6$(B), and ${\Gamma}_7$(C) to the conducton band states of ${\Gamma}_6$, respectively. Crystal field splitting and spin orbit splitting were found to be at 0.2360 eV and 0.1119 eV, respectively, from found to be photocurrent spectroscopy.

The colorization of $Zn_2SiO_4$ crystal glazes was investigated by adding nucleating seeds with various coloring agents. The addition of color fixing agents such as $Fe_2O_3$, $MnO_2$, and NiO with seeds caused changes in the colors of glazes. The crystallinity and crystal size were dependent on glaze composition and firing schedules. By controlling coloring agents and firing schedules, it was possible to create various colors and sizes of crystals in a zinc-based crystalline glaze.

Single crystals, which have complexed composition, are fabricated by solid state grain growth. However, it is hard to achieve stable properties in a single crystal due to trapped pores. Aerosol deposition (AD) is suitable for fabrication of single crystals with stable properties because this process can make a high density coating layer. Because of their unique features (nano sized grains, stress inner site), it is hard to fabricate single crystals, and so studies of grain growth behavior of AD film are essential. In this study, a $BaTiO_3$ coating layer with ${\sim}9{\mu}m$ thickness is fabricated using an aerosol deposition method on (100) and (110) cut $SrTiO_3$ single crystal substrates, which are adopted as seeds for grain growth. Each specimen is heat-treated at various conditions (900, 1,100, and $1,300^{\circ}C$ for 5 h). $BaTiO_3$ layer shows different growth behavior and X-ray diffraction depending on cutting direction of $SrTiO_3$ seed. Rectangular pillars at $SrTiO_3$ (100) and laminating thin plates at $SrTiO_3$ (110), respectively, are observed.

A p-$CdIn_2Te_4$ single crystal has been grown by the Bridgman method without a seed crystal in a tree-stage vertical electric furnace. From photocurrent measurements, it was found that three peaks, A, B, and C, corresponded to an intrinsic transition due to the band-to-band transition from the valence band states ${\Gamma}_7(A),\;{\Gamma}_6(B),\;and\;{\Gamma}_7(C)$ to the conduction band state ${\Gamma}_6$, respectively. Also, the valence band splitting of the $CdIn_2Te_4$ crystal has been confirmed by photocurrent spectroscopy. The crystal field splitting and the spin orbit splitting were obtained to be 0.2360 and 0.1119 eV, respectively. Also, the temperature dependence of the band gap energy of the $CdIn_2Te_4$ crystal has been driven as the following equation of $E_g(T)\;=E_g(0)\;-\;(9.43\;{\times}\;10^{-3})T^2/(2676\;+\;T)$. In this equation, the Eg(0) was estimated to be 1.4750, 1.7110, and 1.8229 eV at the valence band state A, B, and C, respectively. The band gap energy of the p-$CdIn_2Te_4$ at room temperature was determined to be 1.2023 eV.
