Bridgeman Technique

The Bridgman technique (also known as Bridgman Stock Barger method) is one of the oldest techniques used for growing crystals. In Bridgman technique, the crucible containing the molten material is translated along the axis of a temperature gradient in a furnace. In Stock Barger technique, there is a high-temperature zone, an adiabatic zone and a low- temperature zone. Stock Barger’s modification of the Bridgman technique allows for better control over the temperature gradient at the melt crystal interface. This is the most important and widely used method of crystal growth

Specifications:

• TRMC-15000C MOS12 Furnace Control Unit
• Translational and Rotational Motion System for Crystal Growth

Research Focus:

• In this technique no impurities are introduced in the growth process and the rate of growth is normally much higher than that possible by other methods.
• This is the most important and widely used method of crystal growth.
