Biortho-germanate single crystals
MDA Crystals has developed the industrial technology of growing Biortho-germanate large single crystals with Chokhralski method using growers “Krystall-3M”.
Technological process is to foresee bull growing as cylinder and “opposite cone” having diameter up to 100 mm and length up to 360 mm.
Perspective application of crystals:
- detection of ionizing radiation;
- environment control;
- radiation control of the nuclear plants;
- high energy physics;
- computer tomography.
