Abstract: Surface morphology of the {101} freshly cleaved planes of L-arginine trifluoroacetate crystals grown from aqueous solutions have been studied by atomic force microscopy. Various step patterns are described and discussed. Moreover, the dislocations are not easily found and all of them are devoid of hollow cores on the emergence points. The reason may be that the stress field is too weak to generate hollow cores.
