Abstract

Langasite single crystal was grown by Xenon-arc floating zone method in mixutre of Af and $O_2$ gas atmosphere. Growing and rotation speed were 1.5 much and 15 rPm respectively. The grown crystal had a c-axis and color of orange. Composition of the grown crystal was $La_{3.10}Ga_{4.73}Si_{1.17}O_{14}$. Activation energy of the crystal was 0.23 eV and was PTC characteristics.

부유대역법을 이용하여 직경 Langasite 단결정을 Ar과 $O_2$가 혼합된 가스의 분위기에서 성장시켰으며, 그때 성장속도는 각각 1.5 mm/hr, 회전속도는 15rpm이었고, 성장된 결정은 투명한 짙은 오렌지색을 가졌다. 성장된 결정은 c 축 방향으로 성장되었으며, 길이 방향의 조성변동이 없이 성장한 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 성장된 결정은 $La_{3.10}Ga_{4.73}Si_{1.17}O_{14}$의 조성을 가지고 있었다. 500nm 부근의 흡수밴드는 성장된 결정의 오렌지빛과 관계가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 계산된 Langasite의 활성화에너지는 0.23eV이었고, $300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 PTC의 특성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다.
