Abstract

Growth of large single crystals of quasi-two-dimensional Ln 2NiO 4 ( Ln = La, Pr, Nd) has been accomplished using the radio frequency technique of skull melting under controlled oxygen partial pressures. No evidence of intergrowth of other phases such as Ln 3Ni 2O 7 or higher homologs was observed. Determination of the Ni 3+ content indicates that the crystals are cation deficient.
