abstract = {The availability of large high-quality single crystals is
an important prerequisite for many studies in solid-state
research. The optical floating-zone technique is an elegant
method to grow such crystals, offering potential to prepare
samples that may be hardly accessible with other techniques.
As elaborated in this report, examples include single
crystals with intentional compositional gradients,
deliberate off-stoichiometry, or complex metallurgy. For the
cubic chiral magnets Mn1–xFexSi and Fe1–xCoxSi, single
crystals are prepared in which the composition is varied
during growth from x ¼ 0 to 0.15 and fromx ¼ 0.1 to 0.3,
respectively. Such samples allow us to efficiently study the
evolution of the magnetic properties as a function of
composition, as demonstrated by means of neutron scattering.
For the archetypical chiral magnet MnSi and the itinerant
antiferromagnet CrB2, single crystals with varying initial
manganese (0.99–1.04) and boron (1.95–2.1) content are
grown. Measurements of the low-temperature properties
address the correlation between magnetic transition
temperature and sample quality. Furthermore, single crystals
of the diborides ErB2, MnB2, and VB2 are prepared. In
addition to high vapor pressures, these materials suffer
from peritectic formation, potential decomposition, and high
melting temperature, respectively.},
