Dr.-Ing. Hans J. Scheel - Crystal Growth - Strontium Titanate

Crystal Growth

Strontium Titanate

sound movie
In this movie Dr.-Ing. Hans J. Scheel talks about:
K. A. Müller´s interest in phase transition of SrTiO3 ST, Bednorz´ master thesis on Verneuil growth of ST, and that reproducible physical measurements require „sufficient characterization“ as defined below.
K. A. Müller, J. G. Bednorz
K. A. Müller, J. G. Bednorz
SrTiO3-Structure and Verneul-grown SrTiO3-crystals
Structure of SrTiO3 — Verneuil-grown SrTiO3 crystals

Definition of „Sufficient Characterization“ (S.C.): It is the analysis of all those structural and chemical aspects (defects) of the sample that have or may have an influence on the specific physical measurement, because all crystals are different with respect to defects, impurities and inhomogeneities. Without S.C. physical measurements are not reproducible.
