InSb single crystals have been grown by the gradient freeze method. Striations close to the seeding interface have been evidenced by X‐ray topography and correlated to temperature and growth rate oscillations. It is shown that these striations are related to light impurity segregations and that a non‐linear process should be taken into account to explain the phenomena.
