Bikshandarkoil R. Srinivasan, K.R. Priolkar

TL;DR
This paper critically examines a previously reported L-arginine mixed KDP crystal, highlighting inconsistencies in its structural data and questioning its validity due to contradictory unit cell parameters.
Contribution
It provides a critical analysis of the reported crystal structure, emphasizing the importance of accurate characterization in crystal growth studies.
Findings
Reported unit cell parameters are inconsistent with tetragonal symmetry
The crystal's structural data contradict established definitions
The validity of the previously reported crystal is questionable
Abstract
The L-arginine mixed potassium dihydrogenphosphate (KDP) crystal reported by Saravanan et al Indian J Pure App Phys 51 (2013) 254, is a dubious crystal. The reported unit cell parameters contradict the definition of the tetragonal crystal system.
