Double Ellipsoid Image Furnace for Growth of Ceramic Single Crystals

德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校将获得一个光学浮子区，图像炉，用于复杂难熔氧化物和氧化锰晶体的生长。该熔炉将成为该大学正在建立的材料研究所监督下的设施的一部分。它将用于生长存在窄带现象的材料，包括高温氧化铜超导体和表现出“巨大”磁阻的锰氧化物。该设备将以显著的势头支持一个高度热门领域的研究。它还将继续强调和培训大块晶体生长技术。＊＊＊

9724625 Goodenough An optical float zone, image furnace will be acquired by the University of Texas at Austin for the growth of complex refractory oxide and manganese oxide crystals. The furnace will be part of a facility under the oversight of a Materials Institute that the University is in the process of establishing. It will be used to grow materials where narrow-band phenomena are present, including high temperature copper oxide superconductors and manganese oxides exhibiting "colossal" magnetoresistance. %%% The equipment will support research in a highly topical field with significant momentum. It will also enable continued emphasis and training in bulk crystal growth techniques. ***
