Bridgman technique

The most frequently used techniques for the commercial manufacture of synthetic gemstone materials are summarized in Table 4. More details on these can be found in various texts (2,5—7). An overview including the various manufacturers is also available (3). Only rardy used for synthetics are such alternative growth techniques as the Bridgman technique of solidification in a cmcible and the float zone technique, both involving growth from the melt...

It is also possible to produce single-crystal ingots as well as highly oriented textured polycrystalline materials (i.e., those in which the grains exhibit a preferred orientation) by directional solidification. With the Bridgman technique... 

Compounds in groups IIA-IVB may be prepared in bulk form by direct reaction and grown by gradient freeze or Bridgman techniques. Thin-film direct reaction is capable of making MgaSi in epitaxial form on silicon. ... 

While solvent re-crystallization may suffice in some circumstances, ONP crystal samples are often grown using the standard Bridgman technique this approach may...
