Growth of cylindrical iron single crystals by the strain-anneal technique

Cylindrical iron single crystals of 0.63 cm dia. and up to 12.5 cm in length were grown using a modified strain-anneal technique. The unique feature of the method is the use of a quench following the pre-growth heat treatment. Attempts to grow crystals were about 80% successful. The devised procedur...

Description
Summary:Cylindrical iron single crystals of 0.63 cm dia. and up to 12.5 cm in length were grown using a modified strain-anneal technique. The unique feature of the method is the use of a quench following the pre-growth heat treatment. Attempts to grow crystals were about 80% successful. The devised procedure was confirmed by growing both cylindrical and rectangular crystals from two lots of Ferrovac E iron of drastically different interstitial contents.
