Habit Changes of Sapphire Grown from PbO‐PbF2, and MoO3‐PbF2 Fluxes

Abstract: Single crystals of AI,(P,, (sapphire) were grown from PbO-PbFz and MoO,-PbFn fluxes; they varied from flat plates (PbRrich melts) to equidimensional crystals (PbO-or Moo,-rich melts).The primary growth planes are basal {OOOl}, first-order rhombohedral { lOjl}, and second-order rhombohedra1 { 0172). The habit change is interpreted on the basis of F-contamination and Pb2+ surface adsorption. Possible ion species in the melts and their relative importance on crystal growth from these systems are discussed.

“…We chose this material as the model material in this study. Al 2 O 3 is known to grow into a variety of polyhedral shapes when grown with molybdenum trioxide (MoO 3 )-containing fluxes [18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and into plate-like shapes when grown with sulfuric acid-based fluxes. 25,26 Oxide additives are also known to change the crystal outline of Al 2 O 3 .…”

“…The equilibrium and theoretical growth forms of corundum are characterized by developed − {1012} planes. Synthetic corundum, however, generally develops {0001} planes and does not have developed − {1012} planes (e.g., Chase & Osmer 1970;Watanabe & Sumiyoshi 1977;Franke & Ghobarkar 1981).…”
