CZOCRALSKI GROWTH OF LAAL03.

Abstract

Crystals containing rare earth dopants (Nd, Ho, Yb) as well as Cr have been successfully grown. Several problems such as bubble formation and dopant variation were encountered; however, these have been reduced by adjusting the growth parameters. Rods have been fabricated which were detwinned to a sufficient state to allow laser testing. Initial testing has begun on Nd doped LaAlO3 which has been successfully lased. (Author)
