Crystals form the backbone of modern technological advancement, playing a vital role in science, engineering, and technology. The study and growth of crystals have evolved into a precise scientific discipline, driven by the wide range of applications of single crystals. These materials serve as fundamental building blocks for innovations in fields such as medicine, electronics, defense, space science, and communications. Single crystals are characterized by a periodic atomic arrangement in three dimensions, where the environment of each atom is uniform relative to similar atoms. Ideal crystals exhibit perfect uniformity, but real crystals are finite and often contain defects. Nevertheless, the regularity of single crystals enables the transmission of electromagnetic waves with minimal scattering, which is critical in many technological applications. Over the past several decades, the ability to grow tailor-made crystals has propelled significant advancements in electronics, fiber optics, and laser technologies. The precise control over crystal structure and quality has made it possible to develop highly specialized materials that meet the demands of modern scientific and industrial applications.
