Crystal growing

The tradition of crystal growing in Turnov dates back to the 1940s with the establishment of the Research Institute for Gems. CRYTUR continues this tradition and has become a global leader in single-crystal growth using both the Czochralski and EFG methods. Single crystals feature a flawless internal structure throughout their entire volume, ensuring exceptional optical and mechanical properties.

Today, CRYTUR is recognized as a world leader in the production of garnet optical materials. Our portfolio includes a wide range of garnet, perovskite, and silicate crystals with application-specific doping, as well as technical sapphire and lead tungstate crystals for advanced industrial and scientific use.
