Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a multicomponent large-size rare earth boride La*Ce1-xB6 monocrystalline block cathode material, belonging to the technical field of rare earth boride thermionic cathode and cold cathode materials. At present, little research has been done into multicomponent rare earth boride monocrystals, the preparation technology in the prior art is complicated, and the prepared monocrystals in the prior art has bad quality and small size and is difficult for practical application. The cathode material disclosed herein is represented as LaxCe1-xB6, wherein, x ranges from 0.2-0.6. The method disclosed herein is characterized in that: a discharge plasma sintering method is adopted, a LaxCe1-xB6 polycrystalline rod is prepared in a high vacuum environment, and then the prepared polycrystalline rod is smelted in a smelting furnace of an optic zone. In the process of crystal growth, for effectively inhibiting the volatilization and oxidation of La and Ce, high-purity flow argon is introduced to a quartz tube, wherein, the gas flow velocity is 1-2 L/min, and the gas pressure is 0.5-0.7 MPa. For making a melting zone more uniform, a seed crystal and a charge bar are reversely rotated, wherein, the rotating speed is 30-40 rpm, and the growth speed is 7-10 mm/h. The prepared monocrystal has the advantages of large size, high purity, and good quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rare earth boride cathode materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing La x Ce 1-x B 6 (0.2≤x≤0.6) method for single crystal bulk materials. technical background [0002] Since 1951, J.M.Lafferty of the United States discovered that lanthanum hexaboride has excellent electron emission characteristics, which started the research boom of rare earth borides. Research hotspots mainly focus on LaB 6 and CeB 6 and other binary rare earth boride cathodes. In the late 1960s, it was discovered that certain polynary rare earth borides such as (La-Eu)B 6 It has more excellent emission properties than binary rare earth borides. But so far, the research and application of polynary rare earth borides at home and abroad are very scarce, especially the research on single crystals. [0003] At present, the aluminum solvent method is usually used to prepare rare earth boride single crystal blocks,...
