Titanium substituted barium hexaferrite BaFe12−xTixO19 single crystal was grown by the top seeded solution growth method from flux on the seed with controlled cooling below 1175 °C. Titanium substitution level gradient in the single crystal in the vertical and horizontal directions was studied. Two planes were cut and polished. A justification for the linear gradient of Ti substitution in a BaFe12−xTixO19 single crystal is proposed; substitution levels in the center and periphery were determined. It was shown that upon growth by the top seeded solution growth method, crystals with a linear Ti substitution level gradient from x = 0.73 to x = 0.77 for a distance of 11 mm along pulling direction were obtained. The study led to the conclusion about the relationship of the gradient and changes in the composition of the nutrient solution.

In this paper, we review our researches on the high-quality 3C-SiC bulk crystal growth. The polytype control and the suppression of defects are essential in the growth 3C-SiC on hexagonal SiC seed crystals. The growth polytype of SiC is usually controlled by the inheritance of the seed crystal. In contrast, we established kinetic polytype control in which the preferential growth of 3C-SiC can be achieved by the difference in the growth rates depending on supersaturation for the polytypes. In the growth of 3C-SiC, double positioning boundaries (DPBs) are often formed by the existence of twinned domain. The elimination of DPBs can be achieved utilizing the anisotropy of the step advance velocity.

High-performance single crystals of ferroelectric Bi4Ti3O12 (BiT) have been successfully obtained via the top-seeded solution growth under high oxygen pressure (Po2) atmosphere. Crystals grown at 960°C at a Po2 of 0.9 MPa exhibited a well-saturated hysteresis loop with a remanent polarization of 48 mC/cm2 and a coercive field of 29 kV/cm. The results of piezoresponse force microscopy indicate that polarization switching is accomplished throughout the BiT crystals obtained. Electric-field-induced strain measurements along the a axis yield a piezoelectric constant d11* of 37 pm/V for BiT.
