Organic thin film crystal growth for nonlinear optics: present methods and exploratory developments
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 3 (2002) no. 4, pp. 449-462.

We discuss different methods to grow organic single crystalline thin films from solution. Specifically, we address exploratory developments and apply them on the highly nonlinear material DAST (4′-dimethylamino-N-methyl-4-stilbazolium tosylate) in a DAST/methanol system. We describe the nucleation and growth thermodynamics in solution using a solubility diagram and its Ostwald–Meiers metastable region. The important experimental parameters for bidimensional growth are discussed and first promising results are presented.
