LiNbO3 (Mg:LN) crystal is an important electro-optical material and MgO-doped LiNbO3 was expected to improve its optical damage resistance. In the present work, we reported the Bridgman growth of MgO-doped LiNbO3 crystal. The growth parameters were discussed and the defects were investigated by the chemical etching method. The etch hillocks and etch pits were observed on the negative Z surface while only etch pits on the positive Z surface by the optical microscope and EPMA. The etching morphology was discussed considering the domain structure.

ABSTRACTFor tetragonal barium titanate (BaTiO3) single crystals, an electric field (E-field) applied along [111]c direction can induce an engineered domain configuration. In this study, the engineered domain structures with different domain sizes were induced into BaTiO3 single crystals, and their piezoelectric properties were investigated as a function of a domain size. Prior to this study, the dependence of domain configuration on the temperature and the E-field was investigated using a polarizing microscope in order to understand the optimum condition for fine and coarse domain structures. As a result, above Curie temperature (Tc) of 132.2 °C, when the E-field over 6 kV/cm was applied along [111]c direction, the engineered domain configuration with fine domain structure appeared. Moreover, it was also found that this fine domain structure was still stable at room temperature without E-field. On the other hand, the coarse domain structure was obtained by poling at just below Tc. Finally, the piezoelectric properties were measured using the 31 resonators with different kinds of domain sizes. As the result, it was found that the piezoelectric properties such as d31 and k31 increased significantly with decreasing domain sizes.

AbstractFilms of Nb3Sn vapor deposited at low rates and high temperatures on (1102) sapphire form an epitaxial <100> single crystal matrix with a domain structure of misoriented regions bounded by low-angle dislocation boundaries. Nucleation of other orientations at the interface result in a highly oriented but polycrystalline film through approximately the first thousand Angstroms of film thickness. After this point random orientations become overgrown by epitaxial <100> regions. At slightly lower temperatures many small <100> grains with a second epitaxial relationship also nucleate at the interface. These rotated grains persist through greater thicknesses than random orientations. The misorientation defect structure of the single crystal matrix is analyzed by transmission electron microscopy.

AbstractThe domain structure and the evolution of antiphase boundaries (APBs) have been investigated in Fe-Al by means of “in-situ” transmission electron microscopy (TEM) heating experiments. Single crystals with composition Fe22.1at%Al and Fe25.6at%Al have been used.The grown-in structure of the Fe22.1at%al single crystal is composed of DO3 ordered particles embedded in the disorderd ±-matrix. A bimodal distribution of the particles was found. Small ordered particles are in between the large precipitates which are surrounded by particle-free zones. Numerous of this large ordered precipitates contain APBs. Crossing the transition temperature to the disordered phase, the small particles dissolve into the ±-matrix and the large particles start to shrink by dissolving.The single crystal with composition Fe25.6at%Al was found to be completely DO3 ordered. The grown-in domains are separated by APBs of type a′0/2〈100〉. At temperatures far below the transition temperature to the B2 phase no significant change in the APB and domain structure has been detected. In contrast, a remarkable evolution in the APB structure has been observed approaching the transition temperature. Coarsening of the domains has been found. Furthermore, APBs of B2-type (a′0/4〈lll〉 shear) are dragged out by dislocation motion. B2- and DC3-type APBs react and junctions are formed. With increasing annealing time, the density of B2-type boundaries increases. The TEM image is dominated by B2-type boundaries linked by the D03-type boundaries. The DO3 superlattice spots are clearly excited approaching the transition temperature to B2. Above the transition temperature, the DO3 spots disappear completely and the diffraction pattern reveals B2 long range order.
