Embodiment Construction

[0020] Below in conjunction with specific implementation preferred scheme further illustrate how the present invention is realized:

[0021] 1. Preparation of Saturated Solution

[0022] Weigh analytically pure NH 4 I28.9880g is placed in a 125mL wide-mouth bottle, add 100mL high-purity water, stir at room temperature, and prepare 2M NH 4 I solution. To the prepared NH 4 Add 1.9684g of CuI powder into the I solution, heat to 70°C, stir for a period of time, the CuI powder is completely dissolved, and a saturated solution of CuI is obtained, and the solution is pale yellow at this time.

[0023] 2. Preparation of Growth Seeds

[0024] Spontaneous crystallization and cultivation of seed crystals were carried out by using an aqueous solution cooling method. Choose NH 4 The I (2M) solution was used as the solvent, and the copper sheet was used as the reducing agent. A saturated solution of CuI at 70°C was prepared in a 125mL jar with a paraffin oil seal, sealed with a cap, a...

Abstract

The invention provides a growing method for high-quality CuI crystals, belonging to the field of crystal growth in a photoelectric functional material technology. According to the method, NH4Cl, NH4Br, NH4I and the like are used as cosolvent, a copper sheet is used as reducer, the growing temperature is 70-40 DEG C, and the crystals are grown through a water solution temperature difference method. The temperature difference method growth technology adopted by the invention has the advantages that the growing equipment is simple, the cost is low, the growing temperature is low, the crystal growth is not limited by solubility and the like; and the grown CuI crystals have high purity, favorable uniformity and large size, so that the CuI crystals can serve as a new generation of ultra-fast scintillation crystals, thus hopefully playing important roles in measurement of ultra-high-counting-rate electrons, gamma rays and X rays in the future, and meanwhile, the CuI crystals also serve as a semiconductor material for a solar cell material, a superconducting material and a photocatalytic material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of crystal growth in photoelectric functional material technology, in particular to a growth method of CuI crystal. Background technique [0002] This century is in the era of optoelectronics. The optoelectronic functional materials in functional materials have both the stability of electronic materials and the advanced nature of photonic materials. They will be widely used in the era of optoelectronics. Efforts have been made to find new ultrafast scintillation materials for applications in high-energy physics and nuclear physics, and many important progresses have been made, among which there is a wide forbidden range for near-band-edge emission (fast electron-hole recombination is possible). Band semiconductor materials (Eg greater than or equal to 3.2eV) have become one of the hotspots of widespread concern. [0003] Cuprous iodide (CuI) has three crystal phases of α, β, and γ. It is a sphalerite structure (γ-CuI...
