ABSTRACT SINGLE-CRYSTAL graphite demonstrates a very high degree of anisotropy between the properties obtained in directions parallel and normal to the basal plane. This has generated a


great deal of scientific curiosity. The closest approach to single-crystal graphite so far has been in the purification and recovery of flakes of natural graphite. Unfortunately, the flakes


of natural graphite are imperfect; well-developed single crystals are rather scarce, especially in the larger sizes. It is felt that the following technique for producing single-crystal


graphite will provide basic material for work on carbon and graphite and for optical work requiring single-crystal lamellæ. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview
