Synthesis of a gradient mesh crystal of the formula Cox Ni1-xO - C.F.C. - (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 0,4)
Written by sctunisie no commentsThe floating zone technique was used for growing f c c cobalt-Nickel oxide single crystal with a gradient in the lattice parameter. The crystal was characterized by energy dispersive X-Ray microanalysis and by Auger electron spectroscopy from longitudinal (100) clevage. Composition along z growth axis was determined using an equation tested with homogeneous f e c solid solutions Cox N1-xO grew and analysed by the same techniques. Dependance of the composition on z was not found to be strictly linear.
