金属离子对KDP晶体的影响是多方面的.本文采用不同的过饱和度,在不同的Fe3+掺杂浓度的生长溶液中生长KDP晶体,定量地研究了Fe3+对KDP晶体生长的影响.实验发现,无论是在高过饱和度还是在低过饱和度下生长KDP晶体,在一定的浓度范围内,Fe3+的掺入既可以增加生长溶液的稳定性,又可以有效抑制晶体柱面的扩展,而且晶体基本不楔化,同时,对晶体光学性能的影响也不大.     

实时研究Fe~(3+)对Z切向ADP晶体成锥动力学过程的影响

设计了一套显微实时观测系统,分析了Z切向ADP晶体成锥过程中形成的薄表面层的生长动力学。通过实时记录成锥薄表面层的切向速度,得到了成锥薄层生长速度随过饱和度的变化曲线。计算出了成锥薄层生长相关动力学系数,发现Fe3+掺杂可以提高薄表面层的切向生长速度,从而加速Z切向ADP晶体的成锥过程。扫描电镜断口形貌显示薄表面层内部存在很多大尺寸缺陷。利用高分辨X射线衍射,测量了掺杂和未掺杂Fe3+成锥薄层样品的单晶摇摆曲线,发现Fe3+掺杂没有降低薄层的结晶质量。

Growth‐Sector Boundaries and Growth‐Rate Dispersion in Potassium Alum Crystals

Crystals of potassium alum, pure and slightly doped with Cr³⁺, were grown from aqueous solution by slow temperature lowering. In addition, short re‐dissolution periods were introduced in order to provoke growth defects and changes of growth rates. Crystal slices of about 1 mm thickness were studied by conventional LANG X‐ray diffraction topography using MoKα radiation. For Cr‐doped crystals, boundaries between {100}, {100} and {111} growth sectors appear by pronounced dynamical X‐ray topographic contrast similar to that of stacking faults. Re‐dissolution experiments provoke the formation of inclusions on {100} faces, followed by an increase of the {100} growth rate by the factor of about six, relative to the neighboured {111} faces. X‐ray topographs show that this increase is correlated with the formation of dislocations, which interestingly have pure‐edge character. During further growth these dislocations penetrate the {100}‐{111} growth sector boundary and vanish from the {100} face, which slows down and finally adopts its former growth rate before re‐dissolution.     

Solution growth and morphology of CH3NH3PbBr3 single crystals in different solvents

In this work, large‐sized CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ single crystals were successful grown using solution evaporation method with hydrohalic acid and N, N‐Dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent respectively. The lattice parameters of cubic CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ were estimated using XRD method. The solubility of CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ in hydrobromic acid was determined at the temperature range between 20 °C–90 °C. A special micro‐solution crystallizer was designed to in‐situ study the morphology of CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ crystal. The largest crystal face was indexed by the XRD patterns and it would be {110} for CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ grown from HBr solution and {100} from DMF solution. The results show that solvent would affect the morphology and crystal habit greatly during crystal growth from solution.

优质立方六面体金刚石大单晶的生长研究

高温高压静压触媒法合成的金刚石单晶,往往呈现六八面体形貌,因为立方六面体单晶{100}面的生长区间相对较小.本研究利用高温高压温度梯度法,自制Fe-Ni合金触媒,通过对合成组装和工艺进行合理调整后,控制晶体在相对低温适合{100}面生长区域内生长,得到的晶体均呈现完整立方六面体形貌;同时为抑制包裹体和其他杂质的进入,人为的提高晶体的径向平铺生长速度,抑制其轴向生长速度.以在33 h内合成的优质立方六面体晶体为例,晶体最大方向尺寸达到7.3 mm,重1.2克拉,其径向生长速度达到0.22 mm/h,轴向生长速度仅为0.08 mm/h,增重速度为7.3 mg/h.     

Distribution of metallic ions in a single KDP crystal grown from aqueous solution

A single KDP (potassium dihydrogen phosphate) crystal was grown in a supersaturated solution containing a metallic ion (Al³⁺, Fe³⁺, or Cr³⁺). The growth rate, morphology, and distribution of the metallic ions into the KDP crystal were measured as the ionic concentration and supersaturation in the solution changed. It was found that in the KDP crystal, Al³⁺ and Fe³⁺ were greatly concentrated, but Cr³⁺ was diluted. Complete expressions for the effect of metallic ions on all aspects of the growth of KDP crystal were suggested. The growth rates of (100) and (101) faces were well correlated by the empirical equation and resulted in good estimation of morphology. The distribution of metallic ions into KDP crystal was also correlated by the distribution model. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Optical imaging of the growth kinetics and polar morphology of zinc tris(thiourea) sulphate single crystals

Growth kinetics of zinc tris(thiourea) sulphate (ZTS) single crystals was imaged in two different growth geometries using laser shadowgraphy technique. Growth rates of the {010} and {001} faces were computed as a function of supersaturation. The time evolution of polar morphology of ZTS crystal based on the growth rates is presented. Except (00 ) face, all the other three faces are found to have a dead zone resulting in large induction period of growth. The anisotropy in the growth rates of the (001) and (00 ) faces was very high, resulting in polar morphology. Different chemical environments on two sides of the (001) slice are suggested as the possible cause for the polar morphology of the crystals. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Twins in CdMnTe single crystals grown by Bridgman method

Cd_1‐xMn_xTe (x =0.2, CdMnTe) crystal was grown by the vertical Bridgman method, which exhibits a pure zincblende structure in the whole ingot. The major defect, twins, which is fatal to CdMnTe crystal, was analyzed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray energy disperse spectroscopy (XEDS) and optic microscopy on the chemical etching surface. The twins observed in the as‐grown ingot are mainly lamellar ones, which lie on the {111} faces from the first‐to‐freeze region of the ingot and run parallel to the growth axis of the ingot. Coherent twins with {115}_t‐{111}_h orientations when indexed with respect to both the twin and host orientations, are often found to be terminated by {110}_t‐{114}_h lateral twins. Te inclusions with about 20 μm in width are observed to preferentially decorate the lamellar twin boundaries. The origin of the twins, relating to the growth twin and the phase transformation twin, is also discussed in this paper. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Growth morphology of gypsum in the presence of copolymers

Gypsum is the most abundant natural sulphate, and in industrial application it plays an important role in gypsum based binders. Furthermore, it plays a critical role in the hydration of Portland cement, and then gypsum is one of the most important cement additive. In this paper we investigated the role of two commercial polymeric additives in modifying the crystal habits and size of gypsum, growth in aqueous solution. These two additives belong to the categories of acrylic polymers and they are known only by their commercial names of SP1 and SP3. We found that these substances can act as shape modifiers mainly at concentration over 0.04% by weight, with a shortening in the elongation of gypsum crystal and some change in the characters of {001} form, from stepped to flat, due to a change in the growth mechanism.
