  • Abstract
    Silver lithium niobate (Ag1-xLixNbO3 ALN) single crystals with Li contents of 10 and 12.5 mol% were successfully grown by a slow cooling method. The high-energy X-ray diffraction measurement revealed that the crystal structures of both ALN10 and ALN12.5 were assigned to the coexistence between orthorhombic Pc21b and rhombohedral R3m phases. Their piezoelectric properties were investigated as a function of crystallographic direction and Li content.
