Abstract: Published data on the design of UV optical filters for the solar-blind technology, a new trend in instrument making, are analyzed. The phase diagrams of the nickel sulfate and cobalt sulfate crystalline hydrates, the growth methods of the simple and complex nickel and cobalt sulfates and the results of studies on their structure and properties are considered. The dehydration mechanism and the factors influencing the thermal stability of the crystals are discussed. The problem of correct measurement of the dehydration temperature is addressed. Particular attention is paid to studies of correlations between the thermal stability and structural parameters of the crystals. Development trends of the title area are outlined.
