Description

Actinide compounds are interesting systems, because a variety of condensed matter physics, such as heavy fermion superconductivity, ferromagnetic superconductivity and "hidden order" is known. In order to study these systems, the high quality single crystal growth is quite important to open up the frontiers of research. Here we present the technique of single crystal growth, such as Czochralski method, flux method, Bridgeman method, chemical transport method and the related technique, as case studies. (author)

Abstract (Japanese)

アクチノイド化合物は魅力的な物性物理の宝庫である。重い電子系超伝導や強磁性超伝導,「隠れた秩序」など多彩な物理が知られている。このような研究のフロンティアを切り拓いていく上で純良単結晶育成は極めて重要である。ネプツニウムも含むアクチノイド化合物の単結晶育成の方法のうち,チョクラルスキー法,フラックス法,ブリッジマン法,気相成長法及び関連する技術について筆者の具体例を元に解説する。(著者)
