ABSTRACT:The MgSO 4 crystal hydrate formed below approximately 0°C was proven to be the undecahydrate, MgSO 4 · 11H 2 O (meridianiite) instead of the reported dodecahydrate MgSO 4 · 12H 2 O. The crystals were grown from solution by eutectic freeze and by cooling crystallization. The crystal structure analysis and the molecular arrangement of these crystals were determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). Reflections were measured at a temperature of 110(2) K. The structure is triclinic with space group P j 1 (No. 2). The crystal is a colorless block with the following parameters F.W. ) 318.55, 0.54 × 0.24 × 0.18 mm 3 , a ) 6.72548 (7)

“…(Note that the main scratch of figure 8b was done with the normal load of 50mN, whereas figure 5 corresponds to 7 mN). According to [44] the Burgers vector of dislocations in LBO is [001]. Hence those etch pits inside the scratch of Fig.8b represent ending screw dislocations regardless of the orientation of the scratch.…”

“…Authors of [40] found that the Vickers hardness of a top-seeded solution grown LBO crystal is 9.09 GPa along the b axis and 8.63 GPa along c. Appearance of cracks was observed for indentation loads > 0.9 N. Elastic coefficients for LBO have been determined by [41][42][43]. It was found [44] that the majority of dislocations in LBO crystals extends parallel to the [001] axis and (010) being their preferred slip plane.…”

Though simple scratch hardness tests after Mohs are still used today, the development of diamond nanoscratching equipment offers new possibilities to meet demands of modern nanotechnology. Preceding approaches to assign hardness values to materials are briefly reviewed, and scratch hardness is related to indentation hardness. Taking single-crystalline LiB 3 O 5 as an example, the dependence of scratch morphology on the direction of scratching is demonstrated quantitatively. The coefficient of friction depends on normal load and varies between 0.25 and 0.37. Moreover, it is oscillating during scratching thus reflecting processes at nanoscale. Dislocation etch pits were observed due to scratching. Scratching in the pastAt the end of the 17 th century people were already aware of the varying resistance of minerals and other materials against mechanical loading, in particular against scratching. Huygens (1690) noticed the fascinating fact that the cleavage plane of calcite may be scratched when moving the knife forward and may not when moving it in the opposite direction [1]. In 1722 Réaumur [2] differentiated the quality of steel, instead of testing it with the aid of a file, by scratching with seven different kinds of reference materials. Moreover, he prepared a steel bar with increasing hardness from one end to the other. The degree of hardness was attributed to the specimen according to the position on the bar which the specimen could scratch first. Linné (1768 and 1793) listed a number of terms relevant for an appropriate terminology of the mechanics of solids which has been adopted by other writers [3]. Then Werner [4] introduced in 1774 four categories of hardness (hard, semihard, soft, very soft) defined by the behaviour of the material when scratched by a knife or a file using gauge minerals for comparison. Following Werner, Hauy classified minerals according to their ability to scratch each other, assigning four grades to the materials scratching quartz, glass or calcite and those not scratching calcite, respectively [5].Almost 200 years ago, in 1812 Carl Friedrich Christian Mohs published the first approach to the hardness scale still used today [6]. He considered hardness (combined with several other properties) as a distinguishing feature of solids. Later he introduced, on the basis of the definition of hardness, the ten-stage hardness scale (now named after him) and instructions for its realisation [7] (His definition reads:' Härte ist der Widerstand,welchen die festen Mineralien der Verschiebung ihrer Theile entgegensetzen. Die Größe dieses Widerstandes heißt Grad der Härte.'; "...daß jedes Mineral, welches ein anderes ritzt, von demselben aber nicht geritzt wird, härter als dieses sey..."; For a biography cf. Rösler [18]). Pansner (1813) was seemingly not aware of Mohs' scale when he proposed a subdivision of all minerals into four hardness classes (represented by diamond, steel, copper, and lead etalons) with the additional subsubdivision into mass density subclasses [8]. The anisotropy of the depth...

“…Therefore, the study of properties governing the applicability of LBO single crystals is important. A number of papers devoted to optical properties [2,3,[8][9][10], electrical conductivity [11], thermal expansion [1,6,[11][12][13], heat capacity [14], phase relationships [15,16], pyro- [6], piezo- [6,17] and dielectric constants [6,11], structural (bulk [1,18] as well as surface [19]), hygroscopic [7] and growth [5,20,21] properties including defects [20] of LBO have been published. Moreover, the electron density has been measured [22,23].…”

Mechanical properties of LiB 3 O 5 single crystal plates with different orientation as well as of glass with the same composition have been investigated. The nano-(H) and microhardness (H M ), the reduced Young's modulus (E r ) and the crack behaviour of the samples were studied. Both hardness and Young's modulus of glass appeared smaller in comparison to corresponding single crystal data (H ~ 7 -8 GPa, H M~ 6 GPa, E r ~ 70 -80 GPa for glass and H ~10 -15 GPa, H M~6 -11 GPa, E r~ 93 -155 GPa for single crystal). H, E r , and the plane of crack propagation proved orientation-dependent. Cracks in the glass sample were not observed up to 0.49 N microindentation load, whereas for the single crystal the cracks appeared already at 0.098N. In single crystals the observed cleavage planes {211} and/or {412} are oriented nearly parallel to planes of B-O rings.
