Résumé

La3Ga5,5Ta0,5O14 (LGT) langatate crystals were grown along Z-axis by Czochralski technique in argon and mixed argon with 0.1%O-2 atmosphere. The coloration and the performance of langatate crystals were strongly connected to the starting chemical composition, the gas atmosphere and the growth parameters. Any deviation from the optimal LGT generate macroscopic defects such cracks and grains boundary causing a deterioration of the crystals performance. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
