Some features of the growth of ZnGeP{sub 2} single crystals by the Bridgman method have been considered. The ratio of the thermal-conductivity coefficients of the liquid and solid phases of ZnGeP{sub 2} at the melting temperature was estimated to be 2.3. It is established that, in the case of ZnGeP{sub 2} growth on a seed, the most favorable crystallographic directions are <100> and <001>. It is shown that annealing and electron irradiation significantly decrease the optical absorption coefficient in the impurity absorption region.
