Abstract

In $BaTiO_3-NaNbO_3$ system, complete series of solid solution occurs and $30BaTiO_3{cdot}70NaNbO_3$ composition is congruently melted. Single crystals of $30BaTiO_3{cdot}70NaNbO_3$, composition were grown by Czochralski method in this investigation. Single crystals with dimensions of 15 - 20mm diameter and 20 - 30mm length, were grown at the pulling rate of 2.0mm/h and the rotation rate of 5.0 -l0rpm. Core structures were found in the grown crystals and inclusions, cellular boundaries existed at the core region. The origin of core occuring was unstability of the crystal- melt interface due to the poor conductivity of latent heat through the crystal during the crystal growing process. Obtained crystals were optically homogeneous except the core region and showed high optical transmittance in the visible range.

전영역에 결쳐서 고용영역이 존재하는 $BaTiO_3-NaNbO_3$계에서, congruent melting composition인 $30BaTiO_3{cdot}70NaNbO_3$조성의 고용체 단결정을 Czochralski법에 의하여 육성하였다. 직경 15-50mm, 길이 20-30mm인 단결정이 결정인상속도 2.0mm/h, 결정회전수 5.0-1-rpm에서 육성되었다. 그러나 결정 육성중 육성되는 결정의 열전도도가 낮기 때문에, 발생하는 잠열(latent heat)의 방출이 충분치 않아 고-액계면이 평탄하게 유지되지 않았고 그결과로 육성된 결정중에는 corestructures가 관찰되었다. 육성된 결정에서 core 부분을 제외한 다른 부분은 inclusion등이 없는, 광학적으로 균질한 단결정이었고 가시광 영역에서 양호한 광투과율을 보였다.
