Extract

War-time requirements for untwinned quartz focused attention on the laboratory production of quartz crystals. Both the Germans and ourselves devoted considerable effort to this project with the result that, by the end of the German war, both countries were in a position to begin large scale manufacture. The fact that quartz crystals can be grown from aqueous solution in a short time is of considerable significance for geologists, and the method will therefore be described in some detail.
