Single crystals are materials in which the entire sample has a continuous and unbroken crystal lattice to the edges of the sample with no grain boundaries. The lack of defects associated with grain boundaries can impart unique properties to single crystals, particularly mechanical, optical and electrical properties, which can also be anisotropic, depending on the type of crystal structure. In addition to making them valuable in certain gems, these properties are also used industrially for technical applications, particularly in the fields of optics and electronics.

A single crystal or monocrystalline solid is a material in which the crystal lattice of the entire sample is continuous and unbroken to the edges of the sample, with no grain boundaries.
Crystal Lattice Introduction Crystal lattice is an infinite array of discrete points in three dimensional space generated by a set of discrete translation operations described by the equation: In geometry and crystallography, a Bravais lattice, named after Auguste Bravais .
