Formation of {110} and {211} type facets in rare‐earth aluminium garnet crystals grown along different crystallographic directions is analyzed and it is shown that D /2 R parameter (where D is the crystal diameter and R is the curvature radius of spherical growth interface) may be used to characterize the number of originating facets and their configuration in crystals.
