High Quality and Large Size Yttrium Iron Garnet Crystal Grown by Top Seeded Solution Growth Technique
摘要
Abstract
Yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12, YIG) crystals have been widely used in microwave and magneto-optic devices due to their excellent magnetic and magneto-optical properties. Currently, the commercial material is YIG single crystal thin films, which is deposited on Gd3Ga5O12 (GGG) substrate using liquid phase epitaxy technique. Herein, we report a new growth technology of YIG single crystal by top seeded solution growth (TSSG) technique from lead-free B2O3-BaF2 flux. The maximum size and weight of the as-grown YIG crystal can be up to 43 mm× 46 mm×11 mm and 60 g, respectively. The crystals exhibit excellent comprehensive performances with narrow ferromagnetic resonance linewidth (0.679 Oe, 1 Oe=250/π A/m), high transparency (75%) and Faraday rotation angle (200 (°)·cm–1@ 1310 nm and 160 (°)·cm–1@1550 nm), indicating a good candidate in microwave and magneto-optic devices. More significantly, this growth technique is ideally suited to large size YIG or doped-YIG single crystals ascombined with the oriented seed crystal and lifting process, which can significantly decrease the manufacture cost.关键词
