Outline of Final Research Achievements |
BNA fiber single crystals were grown by the m-PD method. Crucible materials and shape were designed according to wetness between BNA and the crucible materials. Finally BNA fiber single crystal with about 1-2 mm diameter was successfully grown by using the polystyrene crucible. The grown BNA crystal showed single Orthorhombic phase. The grown BNA crystal showed 19.7 arcsec of line width of rocking curve. This value is superior to that of the reported BNA crystals grown by the solution growth (~30 arcsec) and Bridgeman method (~100 arcsec). THz-wave generation from 4 THz up to 14 THz from the m-PD grown BNA fiber was demonstrated. Positivity of high crystallinity BNA single crystal growth by the m-PD method was evidenced by this study.
