Freestanding AlN single crystals are grown in a RF-heated furnace by physical vapor transport (PVT). Three different growth regimes with growth temperatures between 2080-2200 degrees C result in different crystal habits and very high structural quality. The Rocking curves show FWHM < 21 arcsec in the 0002 and 100 Reflection on the as-grown facets. Isometric AlN crystals with sizes up to 10 x 10 x 12 mm(3) show a zonar structure consisting of a yellowish core area which is grown on the N-polar (000 (1) over bar) facet and a nearly colorless edge region grown on prismatic (10 (1) over bar0) facets. In the two growth zones nearly the same C concentrations but different amounts of O and Si are measured by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The yellowish core area show a very low defect density (EPD
