Pure and doped high-quality single-crystals of the non-congruently melting chain compound SrCuO2 were grown in an infra-red image furnace using the traveling solvent floating zone technique. The growth conditions, together with the characterization of the grown single crystals by optical microscopy, EDX, X-ray powder diffraction and magnetization in the 2–300S =0) and Ni2+ (S =1) on the Cu2+ (S =½) sites leads to breaking of the chains of the structure in finite segments.
