204 results about "Flux method" patented technology

Flux method is a method of crystal growth where the components of the desired substance are dissolved in a solvent (flux). The method is particularly suitable for crystals needing to be free from thermal strain. It takes place in a crucible made of highly stable, non-reactive material. For production of oxide crystals, metals such as platinum, tantalum, and niobium are common. Production of metallic crystals generally uses crucibles made from ceramics such as alumina, zirconia, and boron nitride. The crucibles and their contents are often isolated from the air for reaction, either by sealing them in a quartz ampoule or by using a furnace with atmosphere control. A saturated solution is prepared by keeping the constituents of the desired crystal and the flux at a temperature slightly above the saturation temperature long enough to form a complete solution. Then the crucible is cooled in order to allow the desired material to precipitate. Crystal formation can begin by spontaneous nucleation or may be encouraged by the use of a seed. As material precipitates out of the solution, the amount of solute in the flux decreases and the temperature at which the solution is saturated lowers. This process repeats itself as the furnace continues to cool until the solution reaches its melting point or the reaction is stopped artificially.

Production method of Zintl phase monocrystal

The invention relates to a Zintl phase single crystal thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof. The single crystal thermoelectric material comprises the following components: BaMn2Sb2, Ba1-xSrxMn2Sb2, Ba1-xYbxMn2Sb2, BaMn2-yZnySb2 and BaMn2Sb2-zGez (x is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1,y is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 2, and z is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.5) Ba0.75Sr0.25Mn2Sb2, Ba0.7Yb0.3Mn2Sb2, BaMn1.5Zn0.5Sb2 and BaMn2Sb1.5Ge0.5. The preparation method adopts a flux method. The method comprises the following steps: firstly weighing tin, manganese, antimony, barium and strontium, Yttrium, zinc or germanium for doping in a glove box, and adding the raw materials into a corundum crucible; then putting an inverted corundum crucible onto the corundum crucible containing the raw materials, filling a small amount of quartz wool between the two corundum crucibles, and putting the two corundum crucibles into a quartz tube; sealing the quartz tube through a preservative film and taking the quartz tube out of the glove box; carrying out vacuum pumping and repeatedly flushing the quartz tube with argon gas; and then sealing and welding the quartz tube and finally adopting a program temperature control furnace to prepare the single crystal. As the reaction temperature of the method is lower than that of a simple substance fusion method, the method is simpler and has less power consumption and lower cost.

Growth device for sodium flux method gallium nitride single crystal

The invention discloses a growth device for a sodium flux method gallium nitride single crystal. Structures such as a seed crystal clamp, a reaction container and a carrying platform are designed inside the device; in epitaxial growth of a single crystal, the seed crystal can be prevented from contacting a molten metal liquid with an over-saturated nitrogen atom concentration by reducing the height of the carrying platform, so that seed crystal decomposition is avoided, and surface quality degradation is prevented; a reaction cavity tray is driven by a motor connected with a transmission rod to rotate, so that the reaction container and a crucible inside are rotated relative to the seed crystal clamp, the molten metal liquid can be then stirred by a seed crystal clamping rod, the nitrogenatom concentration uniformity inside can be improved, the purpose of increasing the concentration of nitrogen atoms around the seed crystal can be achieved, and crystal nitrogen insufficiency can be avoided; due to adoption of a semi-sealed reaction container structure, escape of sodium steam in the crystal growth process can be reduced, external impurity atmospheres can be baffled, so that the metal sodium can play a role of a fluxing agent continuously, and a stable and pure growth condition can be provided for epitaxy of the gallium nitride single crystal.
