Crystal Growth of Cesium Hafnium Chloride (Cs2HfCl6) Scintillating Crystal
Crystal growth is the process where crystalline substance forms and increases in size through the addition of atoms, ions, or molecules. In this research we used the Bridgman technique to grow Cesium Hafnium Chloride (C2HfCl6). This technique is ideal for growing large volume crystal. Using a vertical furnace with two heating zones for heating and cooling. the material solidifies into a crystal as it slowly transitions from hot to cold zone.
