Issue Date: | 1-Jun-1999 | Citation: | Prabhakaran, D., Subramanian, C., Balakumar, S., Ramasamy, P. (1999-06-01). Morphology and etching studies on YBCO and CuO single crystals. Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications 319 (1) : 99-103. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Single crystals of YBCO (Y123) and CuO have been grown from a BaO-CuO (28:72) flux using a low axial gradient furnace (approximately 1 °C/cm). Growth morphology of the grown crystals was studied using an optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Cell parameter values and chemical composition of the grown crystals were determined from the X-ray diffraction data and inductively coupled plasma analysis, respectively. Etching studies were done for both the crystals using different etchants. Oxygen stoichiometry of the YBCO crystal was determined by iodometry titration analysis. | Source Title: | Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/66689 | ISSN: | 09214534 |
