Ca 2.90 Li 0.30 Nb 1.93 Ga 2.76 O 12 and La 0.57 Ca 2.38 Li 0.72 Nb 2.01 Ga 2.26 O 12 crystals: New substrates with more perfect lattice constant for garnet-type film

A roadmap for laser optimization of Yb:Ca3(NbGa)5O12-CNGG-type single crystal garnets

“…Other crystal growth procedures, particularly the growth in non-oxidative atmosphere required by the use of iridium crucibles, may also contribute with additional crystal colouration. 35 In our experience the colouration described here in Section 3b, Fig. 3, is permanent as it was not removed by after growth crystal annealing in air upon cooling, or by subsequent 1340 1C annealing in air (see the ESI, † Fig.…”

“…This colouration is commonly reported in the literature for CNGG-type crystals grown by the Czochralski method. 21,[33][34][35] Two different OA features determine the observed crystal colour, see Fig. 3a.…”

Design Principles for 3d Electron Transfer in a Ga-Based Garnet To Enable High-Performance Reversible Thermochromic Material Color Maps

“…The unit cell structure and the close-up for the local structure of Er 3 Ga 5 O 12 are presented in Figure . The garnet has three crystallographic cation sites: Er 3+ in the Wyckoff position 24c dodecahedral D2 site with 8-fold coordination and Ga 3+ in Wyckoff position 16a octahedral S6 and Wyckoff position 24d tetrahedral S4 sites with 6- and 4-fold coordination, respectively. , O 2– ions are in Wyckoff position 96h sites, and each is connected with one tetrahedron, one octahedron, and two dodecahedra . The tetrahedra and octahedra are arranged along the crystallographic directions and formed the dodecahedral cavities that Er 3+ ions occupy (Figure b).…”
