Abstract: | Needle-like or wool-like Al2O3 whiskers can be grown on a substrate by the hydrolysis of aluminium fluoride vapour. Effects of the growth conditions on the morphology of the crystals and growth processes of the whisker were investigated, and the optimum growth condition of whiskers was examined. Adequate vapour pressure conditions of the reactant gases for the growth of the wool-like whisker were found to be
. Aluminium oxyfluoride was assumed to be the most probable intermediate species for the growth of Al2O3 whiskers. A variety of crystal morphologies are also shown and described with respect to the experimental conditions. |
