Abstract

Chiolite oxyflouride crystals have been grown by a Bridgman-Stockbarger technique. Large and good quality crystals have been obtained and a polarizing microscopic study has been carried out on previously polished plates. Ferroelastic domains have been observed at room temperature. The domain walls are parallel to the (100) and (001) monoclinic unit cell planes. Details of the domain intersections at ∼90° have been discussed.
