As. Manea et al., INFLUENCE OF THE MELT GROWTH CONFIGURATION ON THE STRUCTURAL-PROPERTIES OF LANGASITE CRYSTALS, Annales de chimie, 22(8), 1997, pp. 735-738
An alternative technique for the synthesis and crystal growth of langa
site (La3Ga5SiO14) is presented. In order to keep constant the compoun
d stoichiometry during these processes, we have used the raw material
charge (mixed oxides) in a pressed pellet shape and also we have built
a thermal screening system surrounded by separately controlled RF coi
ls. In this way, a suitable solid/liquid interface shape has been obta
ined.
