Boule
3.You may form the loaves into boule, or any other style that pleases you.
4.The quality, optical transmissivity and homogeneity of the sapphire boule have remarkably improved.
6.YJD 90 brown boule has characteristics of high Al 2O 3 content,low micro porosity,corrosion resistance and better thermal stability etc. .
7.We have studied the growth method of Nd: LMA crystal and obtained a c-abxis boule with the size of (26×180mm) and an α-axis boule with the size of 27×13×160mm. From those boule, we obtained several laser rods with size φ5~7×60~110mm. The highest slope efficiency is about 4.5 percent and the interference fringe is 0.5/25mm.
8.The as-grown sapphire boule (φ110×80mm3) turns out colorless and transparent after being decolourized and decarbonized in air and hydrogen successively at high temperature.
9.XRD and DTA curves of the powder from the GSO boule were measured to interpret the cracking of the boule. The absorption and fluorescence spectra at room temperature were also investigated, from which we examined that the emission peak of GSO:Ce crystal is at 433 nm,and the transmission in the region of over 400 nm is larger than 80%.
10.Several high quality crystals of AgGaSe2 have been grown utilizing the vertical Bridgman technique. Boule sizes were typically 20 mm in diameter and 80 mm long.
