Abstract: | The bulk crystal of LiSrBO3(8.39 g) with a size of 21mm × 20mm × 15mm was grown by high temperature solution growth method. The relationship between growth habit and crystal structure was discussed. The transmission spectrum shows an UV absorption edge at about 300 nm. The melting temperature of this crystal was determined to be 942 ℃ by DTA-TG measurement. The band structure of the LiSrBO3 crystal was studied by means of the first principle method. An indirect band gap was found to be about 4.0 eV, and a low dielectric constant was estimated to be about 1.9 in terms of theoretical results. |
