Directionally solidified eutectics of systems formed by oxides and halides can be employed for developing materials with anisotropic properties. Preparation of directionally solidified eutectics by the method of zone melting with a heater submerged in the melt makes it possible to monitor visually the entire growth process. This method is apparently optimal, since it makes it possible to control the temperature gradient and the solidification rate over wide limits.
