Abstract
The exaggerated grain growth which can occur during the sintering of B aTiO3 was implemented for the fabrication of single crystals. A very s mall amount of SiO2 was placed on top of a BaTiO3 powder compact to fo rm seed grains composed of twin lamellae. The seed grains continued to grow without limit and single crystals of up to a few centimetres in size were obtained. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
