Preparation, properties and application of sapphire single-crystal fibers grown by the EFG method

Sapphire – the single crystal of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) – is one of the most important artificially produced materials. The sapphire fibres studied were grown in Crytur using the “edge-defined film-fed growth” (EFG) technique. Their unique physical and chemical properties can be employed in vario...
