Single crystals of PbHPO4 have been grown by gel and water solution methods. Both growth techniques have yielded crystals with similar morphology. Their real structure was studied. The gel technique is able to provide dislocation-free and inclusion-free crystals. Water solution crystals are less perfect. The possibility of revealing the ferroelectric domain structure is discussed.
