Abstract

A new flux, Li₂B₄O₇ − MoO₃, has been successfully used to grow La₂CaB₁₀O₁₉ (LCB) single crystals by the top seeded solution growth (TSSG) method. The suitable region for LCB crystal growth was investigated by growth experiments, and measurements of volatility and viscosity, which confirmed that the appropriate molar ratios of LCB: Li₂B₄O₇: MoO₃ are 1: 2.3: (1–1.5). The characterizations, including X-ray rocking curve, transmission spectra, optical weak absorption, and laser-induced damage threshold, have been performed on the as-grown crystal, which indicated that the LCB crystal grown from new LCB − Li₂B₄O₇ − MoO₃ system exhibits high optical quality.
