Problems solved by technology

But to grow a lead tungstate crystal doped with ions, from the preparation of platinum crucible, directional cutting of seed crystal, charging, furnace charging to crystal heating, inoculation, and directional growth, it requires rich experience in growing lead tungstate crystals. Moreover, due to internal defects and thermal stress, the grown lead tungstate crystals are very easy to crack the lead tungstate crystals and form twins, and it is difficult to obtain high-quality lead tungstate crystals.

Abstract

The invention discloses a process for modifying a lead tungstate crystal by utilizing a diffusion method, which comprises the steps of (1) utilizing lead oxide (PbO) powder and tungsten trioxide (WO3) powder to serve as raw materials, performing accurate dosing according to the molar ratio of n (PbO) to n (WO3) being 1 to 1, and growing the lead tungstate crystal by using a bridgman method or a czochralski method; (2) accurately orientating, cutting and grinding generated lead tungstate crystal through an X ray orientation device into lead tungstate wafers with thicknesses of 2-5mm, and cleaning the lead tungstate wafers to obtain lead tungstate crystal samples; and (3) placing the lead tungstate crystal samples obtained in the step (2) into a crucible containing metallic oxide powder to enable the lead tungstate crystal samples to be tightly wrapped by the metallic oxide powder, placing the crucible into a muffle furnace, heating the muffle furnace to 800-1000 DEG C, finishing diffusion after keeping the temperature for 12-36 hours, cooling to the room temperature, and obtaining a modified lead tungstate crystal. The process for modifying the lead tungstate crystal by utilizing the diffusion method has the advantages of low energy consumption and high efficiency.
