Abstract
LaB3O6 single crystals have been first grown by Czochralski technique in an oxygen atmosphere from platinum crucibles. The compound structure has been precisely determined; absorption, X-ray- and thermostimulated luminescence spectra of the crystals have been studied. The luminescence mechanism of L aB3O6 single crystals is discussed and associated with the hole center base d on the structure defect (La3+ vacancy). (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
