Jacques,

Yes, the simplest is the best! www.Goodfellow.com supplies
for Zinc monocrystal in various sizes. I am waiting for quotations.

For archives : Here are references finally found on the www
(obviously not exhaustive list):

http://www.goodfellow.com
http://www.accumetmaterials.com/1CRYSTAL.HTML
http://www.alfa.com/alf/specialty_metals.htm
http://www.mateck.de/
and maybe http://www.espimetals.com/metals/zinc.pdf
(to be confirmed).

Web pages of Umicore don't present anything about Zinc single
crystals.

Thank you again for your help
Cheers
Sam
