Abstract

The invention discloses a method for growing a large-size square sapphire single crystal, relating to single crystal materials of aluminum oxides. According to the method, a special crucible is used and a process for upper seeding and directional crystallization is adopted to grow a rectangular or square sapphire crystal with specific crystal orientation, wherein the special crucible has a round outside and a square inside namely the outer surface is cylindrical and the inner space is in the shape of a trapezoidal cone, and the caliber of an upper port of the inner space trapezoidal cone is bigger than that of a bottom port of the inner space trapezoidal cone of the special crucible. The method disclosed by the invention overcomes the defects that the conventional growth method can not ensure the uniformity and stability of a growth interface to result in low crystal quality, and due to anisotropy of the growth rate, the crystal is broken by great thermal stress caused during growing and is low in integrity.
