“…We could confirm in Fig. 7 that just as the stereographic projections of Al 2 O 3 [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20], [0001], and YAG [001], [À 112] show the same orientations as the seed, the Ce-doped MGC grown in the Mo crucible also retained the orientation of the seed. In contrast, we found that in Ce-doped MGC grown in an Ir crucible, while the orientation of the Al 2 O 3 phase was the same as the seed, however, the orientation of the YAG phase was inclined about 131 from that of the seed.…”
