The growth rate of the crystal is related to concentration gradients, rather than concentration alone. This aspect is explored in Figure 5.22.
Figure 5.22: (a) Variation of normalized concentration gradients near the three faces of the growing cystal, (b) horizontal growth of the crystal relative to its maximum size as a function of time, and (c) photographs of grown crystals with and without crystal rotation. (Ramp rate= )
