The phase diagram of PbO (massicot)-PbTiO
3 system in PbO rich region was determined by X-ray diffraction and DTA measurement. On the basis of this diagram, single crystals of perovakite-type PLTiO
3 were grown from the melt with PbO as flux. And it was also studied by using a mixture of PbO-H
3BO
3-PbTiO
3.
The following results were obtained.
(1) PbTiO
3 single crystals were tetragonal having the stoichiometric composition and the direction of the growth was [100].
(2) The largest PbTiO
3 single crystals (5mm×5mm×1mm) were obtained from the melt with the composition of PbO : PbTiO
3=(80-70):(20-30) by mole percent.
(3) There was no difference in crystal size between the crystals obtained by the cooling rate of 25°C/hr and that of 50°C/hr from the melt at 1100°C.
(4) The translucent or partial translucent PbTiO
3 single crystals were grown by adding 10 mole percent boric acid to the mixture of PbO:PbTiO
3=(80-70):(20-30).
(5) In PLO-H
3BO
3-PbTiO
3 system, the region of the composition for obtaining single crystals of PbTiO
3 was 10≤PbTiO
3≤35, 25≤PbO≤85 and 0≤H
3BO
3≤52 mole percent and the translucent or partial translucent single crystals were grown in the region of 10≤PbTiO
3≤30, 25≤PbO≤45 and 44≤H
3BO
3≤52 mole percent.
