Abstract

La3M4+Ga5O14 (M=Ti, Zr, Hf) compounds were crystallized using the micro-pulling down and Czochralski techniques. Both growth methods showed that these three crystals are peritectic compounds. The structure of La3TiGa5O14 (LTiG) crystal was refined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. LTiG was observed to be isostructural to Ca3Ga2Ge4O14 (P321 (No.150), Z=1) and the lattice parameters are a=8.223(1), c=5.109(1) A. The Ti atoms were found to occupy octahedral (1a) and tetrahedral (3f) sites coordinated by six and four oxygen atoms, respectively.
