Rutile single crystal prodn. by floating zone process - useful for mfg. precision optical components

摘要

In rutile single crystal prodn. by a floating zone process, the novelty is that the crystal growth direction is the 001 crystal axis direction, the angle between the growth direction and the 001 direction pref. being less than 15 deg.. USE/ADVANTAGE - The rutile single crystal is used as a high precision optical component. A crystal of large dia. (15mm or more) can be produced. (4pp Dwg.No.1/1)
