摘要
采用提拉法沿a、b、c轴方向生长了Tm:YAP晶体,研究了该晶体的几种常见缺陷。通过化学腐蚀,利用光学显微镜观察了Tm:YAP晶体主要晶面的位错腐蚀坑形貌,发现在沿b轴生长晶体的(010)面上存在位错蚀坑密度不同的区域,对其成因进行了分析。借助偏光显微镜研究了晶体中的孪晶及消光现象,分析了成因并提出了消除措施。用He-Ne激光对晶体内的散射颗粒分布进行了研究,在扫描电镜(SEM)下观察到形状不规则的散射颗粒夹杂。上述研究结果对获得优质Tm:YAP晶体具有重要意义。
Tm:YAP crystals were grown along a, b and c axis by Czochralski method. Several kinds of defects in the crystal were studied. Chemical corrosion was used to the slices of Tm: YAP crystal and the etch pits were observed by optical microscope. On the (010) plane of Tm:YAP crystal grown along b axis, there are areas with different dislocation etch pits densities and the cause of this distribution was discussed. Twins were observed in the crystal grown along c cause of formation was analyzed. The existence of scattering axis by polarized optical microscope and its centers in the crystals was investigated by He-Ne laser beam and SEM. The study on defects is important for improving the quality of Tm : YAP laser crystal.
