Abstract

It was known that the C-IC transition in the mixed crystal $(A_{1-x}A^'_x)_2ZnCl_4$ is smeared out with increasing x, which is attributed to the pinning effect of the doped A' ions. In this study, we introduce a new mixed crystal system $K_2Zn_{1-X}Co_XCl_4$, where doped Co ions do not destroy the orientation of the polarization in C phase and preserve the long range ordering of IC phase. We grew a series of mixed crystals $K_2Zn_{1-X}Co_XCl_4$ for x=0, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1 by the Czochralski method and investigated the real composition of the mixed crystals, structure and the change of the C-IC phase transition with increasing x by the thermal analysis.

$(A_{1-x}A^'_x)_2ZnCl_4$혼정에서 C-IC 상전이가 A' ions의 pinning 효과에 의해 x의 증가에 따라 사라지는 것은 알려져 왔다. 본 연구에서 우리는 C상에서 polarization 방향이 파괴되지 않고 IC상에서 long range ordering을 유지하는 새로운 혼정인 $K_2Zn_{1-X}Co_XCl_4$결정을 소개한다. 우리는 Czochralski법으로 여러비율에 대한 (x=0, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1) $K_2Zn_{1-X}Co_XCl_4$혼정을 육성하였으며 육성된 결정의 성분분석, 열적분석 및 x에 따른 C-IC 상전이의 존재를 확인하였다.
