A DOUBLE-TEMPERATURE-GRADIENT TECHNIQUE FOR THE GROWTH OF PURE C60 SINGLE CRYSTALS FROM THE VAPOR PHASE

Pure C₆₀ single crystals were grown by a sublimation-condensation method in an evacuated dosed quartz tube situated in a double-temperature-gradient furnace. Large C₆₀ single crystals, up to a size of 0.6 mm×1.0 mm×2.0 mm with quite smooth and shiny faces, were obtained. X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction and X-ray morphology were carried out and showed that the quality of large C₆₀ single crystals grown by the double-temperature-gradient technique is excellent. In this paper the experimental results of the growth of large C₆₀ single crystals are reported and the morphological and structural characterizations are discussed in detail.

A double-temperature-gradient technique for the growth of single-crystal fullerites from the vapor phase

Fullerite single crystals were prepared by a sublimation-condensation method in a closed evacuated glass tube situated in a double-temperature-gradient furnace. Crystals of various size and up to 9 mg weight with well expressed smooth and shiny faces were obtained. X-ray analysis, interfacial angle measurements and observed morphological habits of selected crystals of C₆₀ confirm the theoretically predicted and experimentally well established fcc structure at room temperature with two types of morphological faces, namely {111} and {100}. A strong tendency to twinning was observed. In the case of C₇₀ crystals, a pure fcc structure was observed. Information on growth kinetics and on instability versus exposure to air and light were obtained from surface studies. Characteristic changes in a thin surface layer were observed when crystals were exposed to air and light. A new phase of C₆₀ stabilized by oxygen was characterized.

Structural properties of vapor-grown C60 crystals

Vapor grown crystals of C₆₀ with thin flat triangular, rhombic or trapezoidal shapes of size to 1×2×0.001 mm as well as prismastic crystals typically 0.5×0.4×0.2 mm have been grown using a high temperature vapor transport method. Room temperature X-ray precession photography shows these crystals exhibit diffraction patterns consistent with those for either (a) single or (b) twinned crystals of the previously reported face-centered cubic structure or (c) a more complex cell of hexagonal symmetry with a=10.010(2) Å and c=49.064(11) Å. This latter from actually is a multiple twin containing both the face-centered cubic and the close-packed hexagonal structure types. The sharp diffraction maxima for either the single or the twinned crystals demonstrate that they consist of large coherent domains and are essentially free of planar defects parallel to the twin planes.     

Fullerit C<Subscript>60</Subscript> single crystals grown on earth and in space

Fullerit C₆₀ single crystals were grown by sublimation on Earth and under microgravity during the FOTON-M3 mission using the same growth parameters and the same multizoned electrovacuum POLIZON-M furnace. IR spectroscopy and X-ray measurements revealed the considerably better crystal structure of the crystals grown under microgravity.     

Diserine sulfate monohydrate: Symmetry, piezoelectric properties, and phase transitions

A new compound, diserine sulfate monohydrate, was synthesized, and single crystals of this compound were grown. X-ray diffraction studies were carried out, and the temperature dependences of the piezoelectric response of these crystals were measured. A conclusion was drawn that the crystals are orthorhombic with the space symmetry group C _1v -Pmm2 and that they apparently undergo phase transitions at 340 and 255 K.     

Electroconductivity and pressure–temperature states of step shocked C60 fullerite

A study of electrophysical and thermodynamic properties of C₆₀ single crystals under step shock loading has been carried out. The increase and the following reduction in specific electroconductivity of C₆₀ fullerite single crystals at step shock compression up to pressure 30 GPa have been measured. The equations of state for face centred cubic (fcc) C₆₀ fullerite as well as for two-dimensional polymer C₆₀ and for three-dimensional polymer C₆₀ (3D-C₆₀) were constructed. The pressure–temperature states of C₆₀ fullerite were calculated at step shock compression up to pressure 30 GPa and temperature 550 K. The X-ray diffraction studies of shock-recovered samples reveal a mixture of fcc C₆₀ and a X-ray amorphous component of fullerite C₆₀. The start of the formation of the X-ray amorphous component occurs at a pressure P _m≈ 19.8 GPa and a temperature T _m≈ 520 K. At pressures exceeding P _m and temperatures exceeding T _m, the shock compressed fullerite consist of a two-phase mixture of fcc C₆₀ fullerite and an X-ray amorphous component presumably consisting of the nucleators of polymer 3D-C₆₀ fullerite. The decrease in electroconductivity of fullerite can be explained by the percolation effect caused by the change of pressure, size and number of polymeric phase nuclei.     

Phase transitions and the structure of the C60 crystal doped with lithium by electrodiffusion

The structure and phase transitions of C₆₀ crystals doped with lithium by injecting metal ions from the superionic crystal-C₆₀ single crystal heterojunction under electrodiffusion conditions are reported. The sample experienced irreversible transitions resulting in the virtually complete disappearance of EPR signals and MW conduction in the temperature range 320–370 K. In this temperature interval, a new C₆₀ phase was formed; the phase contained polymeric chains of C₆₀ molecules along the crystallographic c axis and lithium clusters. The structure of this phase was determined. Annealing at 620 K restored the EPR signal and, according to the X-ray data, the initial cubic structure of pure C₆₀. The X-ray pattern, however, contained additional diffraction peaks, which was evidence of the presence of one more phase with a structure yet unknown.     

C60 growth on Si(100), GaSe(0001) and GeS(001)

C₆₀ films have been grown in ultra high vacuum on various crystalline substrates and the structure of the films has been investigated by low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS). The C₆₀ films form randomly oriented nanocrystals on Si(100), mesoscopic polycrystals on GaSe(0001) and microscopic single crystals on GeS(001). The vibrational structure of the C₆₀/substrate interfaces is analyzed in detail by HREELS carried out in the dipole and impact scattering regimes. It is shown that the epitaxy of C₆₀ on GeS(001) is induced by the weak van der Waals bonding and the peculiar corrugation of the substrate surface.     

Intercalation of C60 fullerene crystals with alkali and alkaline-earth metals through self-propagating high-temperature synthesis

A method for rapidly intercalating C₆₀ fullerene crystals has been implemented using self-propagating high-temperature synthesis. The method has been used to intercalate C₆₀ fullerene crystals with alkali (K, Rb) and alkaline-earth (Ca, Ba) metals. The superconducting transition temperatures of the prepared compounds have been measured. The C₆₀ fullerene crystals intercalated with calcium have been investigated using X-ray diffraction.     

Growth of silicon carbide films via C60 precursors

Epitaxial silicon carbide films are grown on Si(100) and Si(111) substrates at surface temperatures between 950 and 1250 K via c₆₀ precursors. Films have been grown up to thicknesses greater than 1 μm. The growth rate of the SiC film is not limited by the surface reaction rate of C₆₀ with silicon at these temperatures, rather by the arrival rate of the reactants Si (by diffusion) or C₆₀. This results in rapid film growth. Films have been characterized by low energy electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and Auger depth profiling. X-ray diffraction suggests the growth of β-SiC in the temperature range investigated. Auger depth profiling shows the film is stoichiometric. Selective crystalline silicon carbide growth is achieved on patterned silicon-silicon oxide samples.     

Studies on the structural,optical, dielectric and mechanical properties of non-linear optical manganese mercury Tetrathiocyanate glycol mono methyl ether (MMTG) single crystal

Non-linear optical manganese mercury teterathiocyanate glycol monomethyl ether [MnHg(SCN)₄(C₃H₈O₂)] compound was synthesized and single crystals were grown from water-glycol monomethyl ether (1:1) mixed solvent by slow cooling method. Structure and crystallinity of the grown crystal were confirmed by both single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Presence of functional groups and coordination of glycol monomethyl ether and thiocyanate in MMTG were confirmed by FT-IR analysis. Optical transmittance and second harmonic generation of the grown crystal were studied by UV–Vis spectrum and Kurtz powder technique. A dielectric study was performed on the MMTG single crystal to study the power dissipation of the material in the presence of alternating electric field. Mechanical behaviour was analysed using Vicker’s microhardness test. Optical surface damage measurement was carried out to confirm the suitability of MMTG crystal for NLO applications.

Growth, Characterization and Theoretical Study of a Novel Organometallic Nonlinear Optical Crystal: CdHg(SCN)4(C2H5NO)2

A novel potentially useful second harmonic generation (SHG) organometallic nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal: cadmium mercury thiocyanate bis(N-methylformamide), CdHg(SCN)₄(C₂H₅NO)₂ (CMTN), has been prepared, and large high-optical-quality single crystals with dimensions up to 30 ×27×9 mm³ have been grown by the temperature-lowering method. Its structural, physicochemical and optical properties are characterized by elemental analyses, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopy, thermal analysis, powder SHG measurements and UV/Vis/NIR transmission. The specific heat has been determined to be 515.5 J?mol^?1?K^?1 at 300 K. CMTN possesses good physicochemical stability up to 128.5^°C, exhibits powder SHG efficiencies 0.8 times that of urea and its UV transparency cutoff is 358 nm. By the use of the DFT/B3LYP/6-31G(d) method, the microscopic second order NLO behavior of CMTN has been investigated by computing the first-order hyperpolarizability together with that of CdHg(SCN)₄ (CMTC) and CdHg(SCN)₄(C₃H₈O₂) (CMTG) crystals. The results have been explained based on their crystal structures.     

Growth and characterization of pure and doped organic nonlinear optical single crystal: l-Alanine alaninium nitrate (LAAN)

The pure l-alanine alaninium nitrate (LAAN) single crystals and LAAN crystals doped with lanthanum oxide (La₂O₃), sodium chloride (NaCl), urea (CH₄N₂O), glycine (C₂H₅NO₂) and thiourea (CH₄N₂S) were grown by slow evaporation method. The X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDAX) analysis, UV–vis spectral analysis, dielectric studies and powder SHG measurement are studied systematically. The slight changes in the lattice parameters were observed for the doped crystals compared to pure LAAN crystal. The incorporation of doping into the crystal lattice was confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray analysis. There is no change in the transmission window due to doping and the percentage of transmission in doped samples was found to increase as compared to that of pure LAAN crystal. The dielectric constant of pure crystal was found to be less than that of doped crystals. The AC conductivity was found to increase after doping and with the increase in temperature. A green radiation of 532 nm was observed from the pure and doped LAAN crystals confirming the second harmonic generation (SHG) of the crystals.
