Abstract
Temperature oscillations have been detected in oxide and fluoride melts which can be directly correlated to the movement of convection patterns visible on the melt surface. It is shown that such oscillations cause growth striations in single crystals grown from these melts. Additional experiments are reported in which the effect of changes in growth parameters upon the oscillations and melt temperatures have been investigated.
