AbstractSingle crystals of cadmium sulfide and zinc sulfide have been grown and studied intensively by the Solid State Physics group at the Aeronautical Research Laboratory. The physical phenomena such as reflection, transmission, ultraviolet-excited emission, and electrical resistivity have been observed and characterized on single crystals of these sulfides. Much interest concerning these phenomena has also been centered on single crystals containing both cadmium sulfide and zinc sulfide.For research purposes, mixed crystals as small as a few tenths of 1 mg or less, to 0.5 g of the mixed sulfides, are being prepared. Special chemical methods are required to determine these constituents in them quantitatively. At times, these chemical methods are not applicable, since these methods invariably consume the sample, and, as a result, other observations on the same crystals cannot be performed.Changes in lattice parameter in single crystals of mixed sulfides as compared to pure zinc sulfide or cadmium sulfide provide excellent means for the determination of the percentage of these sulfides. In the X-ray method, single crystals used for the determination of the lattice parameters remain intact. The equipment adopted, procedure used, and the data obtained are illustrated and discussed.In the present study, crystals of cadmium sulfide (greenockite), alpha-zinc sulfide (wurtzite) and solid solutions of these two sulfides having a hexagonal unit cell were used. Since the lattice parameter a0 is found to follow Vegard's law, single-crystal rotation photographs described in this paper were obtained by rotating crystals around the c axis; the lattice parameter was determined with high precision by scanning along the zero-layer line with a microphotometer.

The aim of this work is to study phase equilibrium and build a state diagram of the AgGaS2-AgSbS2 system. For research, the initial sulfides (AgGaS2 and AgSbS2) were synthesized from elements of high purity in quartz ampoules evacuated to 0.133 Pa. Quaternary alloys of the AgGaS2 – AgSbS2 systems were synthesized from ligatures at a temperature of 800–1300 K, depending on the composition. To homogenize the alloys, annealing was performed at 50–60 K below solidus for 300 h. Using complex methods of physicochemical analysis (differential thermal, X-ray phase, microstructural, microhardness measurement and density determination), phase equilibria in the AgGaS2-AgSbS2 system were studied. It was established that the AgGaS2-AgSbS2 system is a quasibinary section of the eutectic type and its state diagram is constructed. The coordinates of the eutectic correspond to 65 mol. % AgSbS2 and a temperature of 750 K. Based on the starting components in the section, the regions of solid solutions were determined. At room temperature, the regions of solid solutions based on AgGaS2 (8 mol. % AgSbS2) and based on AgSbS2 (14 mol. % AgGaS2) were revealed. At a eutectic temperature, solubility reaches 20 and 25 mol. %, respectively. According to the XRD data, α-solid solutions belong to monoclinic syngony, and with an increase in the concentration of AgGaS2, the lattice parameter increases (a = 12.861-12.972; b = 4.409-4.474; c = 13.282-13.324Å). AgSbS2 triple sulfide solid solutions crystallize in monoclinic syngony. These solid solutions are of the type of substitution. For structural and optical measurements, technological conditions for the growth of crystals of solid solutions were developed and their single crystals were grown. Single crystals of (AgSbS2)1-x(AgGaS2)x solid solutions were obtained by the Bridgman-Stockbarger method.

AbstractIdeal sillenite type Bi12FeO20 (BFO) micron sized single crystals have been successfully grown via inexpensive hydrothermal method. The refined single crystal X-ray diffraction data reveals cubic Bi12FeO20 structure with single crystal parameters. Occurrence of rare Fe4+ state is identified via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The lattice parameter (a) and corresponding molar volume (Vm) of Bi12FeO20 have been measured in the temperature range of 30–700 °C by the X-ray diffraction method. The thermal expansion coefficient (α) 3.93 × 10–5 K−1 was calculated from the measured values of the parameters. Electronic structure and density of states are investigated by first principle calculations. Photoelectrochemical measurements on single crystals with bandgap of 2 eV reveal significant photo response. The photoactivity of as grown crystals were further investigated by degrading organic effluents such as Methylene blue (MB) and Congo red (CR) under natural sunlight. BFO showed photodegradation efficiency about 74.23% and 32.10% for degrading MB and CR respectively. Interesting morphology and microstructure of pointed spearhead like BFO crystals provide a new insight in designing and synthesizing multifunctional single crystals.

ABSTRACTSingle crystals of Al2O3 were implanted with chromium and zirconium to fluences of 1 × 1016 to 1 × 1017 ions cm−2. Rutherford backscattering-channeling studies showed the surface layers to be damaged but crystalline with the implanted ions randomly distributed. The microhardness and indentation fracture toughness were higher for the random solutions than for conventionally formed solid solutions. Changes in structure and properties caused by annealing in air at temperatures up to 1800°C were studied.
