Problems solved by technology

However, mullite has a melting point of 1850°C [49,50] , It is not easy to obtain centimeter-level mullite crystals by using traditional growth techniques. At the same time, there is a lack of research on mullite crystals at home and abroad. After a comprehensive comparison, it was decided to grow mullite crystals by optical floating zone method

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for growing mullite crystals through a floating-zone method, belonging to the field of crystal growth. The method comprises the following steps: dosing Al2O3 and SiO2 powder according to a stoichiometric ratio; ball-milling, drying, screening, pre-sintering and re-screening the dosed mixture; pressing the powder into rod-shaped material rods; sintering the prepared material rods in a muffle furnace, thereby obtaining dense and uniform polycrystalline rods; putting the polycrystalline rods into a floating zone furnace, raising the temperature at a rate of 50-100 DEG C per minute until the material rods and seed crystals are molten, butting, setting the crystal growth speed at 2-10mm/h after the melting zone is stabilized within 3-5 minutes, and starting crystal growth; setting the cooling parameters and cooling to room temperature after the growth is ended. The mullite crystals without macro defects are growth at the first time by using the floating-zone method, the crystal forming quality is high, and the growth speed is high.

Description
