| Annotation: | The project is focused on the research of oxygen vacancies in single crystals of Yttrium aluminium garnet. During the growing process, these oxygen vacancies are distributed unevenly in the volume of the crystal, which is affected by hydrodynamic flows in the melt. Since the melting temperature for YAG is higher than 1950°C, a physical model will be built for the research. On the basis of these data, an experimental thermal unit will be assembled with the possibility of controlling the thermal field, which will enable the control of convection currents in the melt. Crystals will be grown in thisthermal unit and will be characterised. The result of the project will be data and correlation of the influence of hydrodynamic flows on the distribution of oxygen vacancies in single crystal of Yttrium aluminium garnet, which has a high potential for use in detectors. |
