Abstract

LYSO:Ce single crystal was widely manufactured by Czochralski method. Considering its high cost and the pollution of the crucible, we tried to prepare the crystal by Verneuil method. Unlike Czochralski method, the Verneuil method need the powders with excellent fluidity and high purity. By comparing the powders annealed at 1100°C,1200°C,1300°C,1400°C and 1500°C, we can obtained the needed powders at 1500°C. We also increased the content of silica to satisfy the volatilization in crystal growth process. The single crystal was prepared by changing the growth parameter. We investigated the phase and the microstructure of the powders and observed the microstucture of the crystal fracture. We discussed the improved method of the process of crystal growth.
