“…The technique chosen for the growth of FeĲSe,S) 1−δ crystals was synthesis in eutectic molten metal chlorides under permanent temperature gradient. 16,17 Molten chlorides constitute a very low melting eutectic mixture AlCl 3 /KCl (K 1 Al 2 Cl 7 ), AlCl 3 /KCl/NaCl (Na 0.5 K 0.5 Al 2 Cl 7 ) or AlCl 3 /KBr (K 1 Al 2 Cl 6 Br 1 ). The permanent gradient is formed when the quartz ampoule with the chalcogen feed and the mixture of haloid salts is placed into a furnace and the temperatures at the ends of the ampoule are different due to the ampoule position.…”

“…A horizontal temperature gradient was applied even more rarely. An example is study [4] on the growth of sphalerite (ZnS) crystals. They were grown in KCl-based melts with additives of KI, ZnCl 2 , ZnI 2 , CdCl 2 , and PbCl 2 in quartz glass ampoules about 50 mm long.…”

The possibilities of growing crystals of metals, alloys, chalcogenides, and pnictides in halide melts using a steady-state temperature gradient are analyzed. Halides of alkali metals and aluminum can be used as transport media. The choice is determined by the melting temperature of salt mixtures. A conducting contour can also be applied to increase transport efficiency. This technique of crystal growth is similar to the electrochemical method. To eliminate interference during migration, some elements can be isolated and forced to migrate through independent channels to the crystal formation region. The technique considered here makes it possible to grow crystals of necessary quality without special equipment; the small crystal sizes are sufficient for laboratory study.

“…Cubic ZnS single crystals have been grown from solvents such as Te [51] and some halides [52,53] at temperatures significantly lower than its melting point. Washiyama et al [51] grew ZnS single crystals using Te solvent.…”

II-VI compound semiconductors are one of the most important optoelectronic materials. Wide-gap II-VI compounds, especially, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnO and ZnTe, are promising materials in fabricating laser diodes (LDs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) operating in the visible and ultraviolet spectral ranges. The recent challenge for their application is the development of sizable high-purity and high-quality bulk crystals as substrates for fabricating devices. Progress has been made in the past several decades in the areas of bulk crystal growth with regard to stoichiometric control, uniformity, reproducibility, thermal stability, diameter control, and impurity and dopant control. Sizable ZnO, ZnSe and ZnTe single crystals have conventionally been grown by seeded physical vapor transport (SPVT), the hydrothermal method, Bridgman methods, and so on. These advances have attracted much attention for the development of future optoelectronics.
