I'm interested, particularly in the preparation of these materials.  I'm a
crystal grower and would like to know what problems exist with the above
mentioned state-of-the-art materials.  Is their composition uniform enough?
Is the defect desity low enough? Is the available size large enough?  Do
they posses sensitivities high enough?

I'd be interested in hearing what experience others have had in using and
preparing these materials.
