Obobshchen opyt, nakoplennyy pri vyrashchivanii monokristallov ZnGeP2 metodom Bridzhmena v vertikal'nom variante v mnogozonnykh termicheskikh ustanovkakh. Rassmotreny osnovnye tipy ustanovok dlya vyrashchivaniya kristallov. Privedeny obshchie kharakteristiki protsessov kristallizatsii v termicheskikh ustanovkakh, obosnovany zadachi chislennogo modelirovaniya i upravleniya. Rassmotreny voprosy, svyazannye s polucheniem sovershennykh monokristallov bol'shikh razmerov. Pokazana vozmozhnost' primeneniya metodov matematicheskogo modelirovaniya dlya povysheniya strukturnoy odnorodnosti kristallov. Dlya nauchnykh i inzhenerno-tekhnicheskikh rabotnikov, spetsializiruyushchikhsya v oblasti proektirovaniya, eksperimental'nykh issledovaniy i ekspluatatsii termicheskikh ustanovok dlya vyrashchivaniya kristallov, a takzhe studentov i aspirantov sootvetstvuyushchikh spetsial'nostey.
