Surface morphology of the {100} cleavage planes of L‐arginine phosphate monohydrate single crystals grown from aqueous solutions is described and discussed. Different from the previous studies, dislocations are not frequently detected and most of them don't have hollow cores on the emergence points. Various step patterns are also described.
