Growth of Tungsten Bronze Family Crystals

Abstract

The objective of this work is to develop suitable quality and size doped and undoped Strontium(1-x)Barium(x)Niobium(2)Oxide(6) (SBN) single crystals or thin films that can be used in optical device studies. The second objective of this work is to develop a phenomenological model to explain the correlation between the ferroelectric and optical properties and thereby possibly control and optimize the material performance for optical device applications. Keywords: Strontium, Barium, Niobium, Single crystals, Doping(Crystallography), Optical equipment, Ferroelectric materials, Tungsten, Bronze.
