Abstract
The validity of solubility phase diagrams of ternary systems for determining the optimal (concentration and temperature) dynamic growth conditions for single crystals of congruently and incongruently dissolving solid phases is shown. It is found that the optimal composition of the mother liquor for growing solid-phase single crystals corresponds to the solution in the solid-phase solubility curve that is located at the maximum distance from the points of invariant equilibria. More than 40 ternary systems have been used and more than 60 new and known large functional single crystals of stoichiometric composition and optical quality that belong to different chemical classes have been grown on their basis under dynamic conditions.
