Crystallization of SrAl₁₂O₁₉ Nanocrystals from Amorphous Submicrometer Particles.

ABSTRACT: Advanced instrumentation and modern analysis tools such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have led to phenomenal progress in understanding crystallization, in particular from solution, which is a prerequisite for the design-based preparation of a target crystal. Nevertheless, little has been understood about the crystallization pathway under high-temperature annealing (HTA) conditions. Metal oxide crystals are prominent materials that are usually obtained via HTA. Despite the widespread application of hydro-/solvothermal methods on the laboratory scale, HTA is the preferred method in many industries for the mass production of metal oxide crystals. However, poor control over the morphology and grain sizes of these crystals under extreme HTA conditions limits their applications. Here
