Crystal growth of the giant magnetostrictive Tb-Dy-Fe alloy has been investigated. < 112 > and < 110 > twinned 'single' crystals were obtained utilizing the preferred growth of the Tb-Dy-Fe alloy. The twinning could be effectively suppressed by low growth rates such as 3 mm h(-1). With seed crystals cut from the < 112 > twinned 'single' crystal, < 111 > oriented single crystals were successfully grown. High growth rates such as 60 mm h(-1) induced the twinning: and a growth tilted from axial heat flow direction, and thus destroyed the twinless growth along < 111 > direction. In the initial growth regions of the < 111 > crystals, a REFe3 banded structure was usually observed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
