Abstract

The invention discloses a method for growing yttrium iron garnet crystals by adopting a composite fluxing agent. The yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12, YIG for short) crystal is an important magneto-optical material and is prepared by the following steps: accurately weighing, mixing, grinding and sintering raw materials to obtain a polycrystal material, crushing the polycrystal material, adding the composite fluxing agent, carrying out ball milling to obtain a mixed material, filling a crucible with the mixed material, heating the crucible filled with the material to a set temperature, keeping thematerial at the temperature to obtain high-temperature molten crystal solution, then carrying out slow cooling until the solution in the crucible is completely cooled and crystallized, conducting cooling to room temperature to obtain a crystal ingot, and removing the fluxing agent by adopting a mechanical stripping and chemical corrosion method to finally obtain the crystal. According to the invention, through the lead-free composite fluxing agent, environmental pollution caused by lead and the corrosion to a platinum crucible are greatly reduced, the growth temperature of the crystal is effectively reduced, and the bulk single crystal with a larger size can be obtained.
