Crystal Growth of Defect-Free Single-Crystalline Fibers in Super-High Supersaturation Solution.

By controlling the supersaturation and choosing high-quality seeds, we successfully suppress the prismatic growth of the tetragonal potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) SCFs, realize the rapid growth along the [001] direction, and obtain SCFs less than 10 μm in width with lengths of centimeters. The experimental results show that there exist critical supersaturation points, 22.40% and 41.
