Abstract

It is crucial to find an appropriate solvent for composition analysis of LiNbO₃ crystal by a chemical method, such as inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. We have comparatively studied several solvents for LiNbO₃ crystal, including HF acid, KHSO₄, B₂O₃, LiBO₂, and NaVO₃. The results show that as the NaVO₃ is used as the solvent, the solubility of LiNbO₃ is as high as 1 g/g at 1000 C. The dissolving is quite fast. Neither solute nor solvent is lost from the melting during the dissolving procedure. A clear high-concentration solution is obtained. Moreover, it is verified experimentally that such a solution is valid for composition analysis of LiNbO₃ crystal by a chemical method. In contrast, the other solvents suffer from one problem or another. We conclude that NaVO₃ is an appropriate solvent for chemical analysis of LiNbO₃. © 2012 American Chemical Society.
