Single crystals of orthorhombic and monoclinic BaLu2F8 doped with Nd and Tm were grown by micro-pulling-down method. The monoclinic (low temperature modification) was grown using LiF flux, while the orthorhombic (high temperature modification) was grown with special hot-zone with shallow gradient and employing quenching process.The orthorhombic (low temperature) modification of ErF3 was grown using LiF flux and hot zone with steep gradient.
