Universitat Rovira I Virgili (URV), Spain
The group FiCMA (Fisica i Cristal.lografia de Materials) at URV lead by
Prof. F. Diaz is a multidisciplinary group of 12 researches working on
physics and crystallography of materials for about 20 years. The present
research interests are focussed on the growth and characterization of
materials for the laser technology. The research project grants of the
group amounted to more than 1 Mio € for the last 5 years (public,
private and mixed funding). The activities include high temperature crystal
growth (Top-Seeded-Solution-Growth, TSSG), Liquid-Phase-Epitaxy (LPE),
sample preparation (orientation, cutting and polishing), and crystallographic,
electric, thermal and optical (absorption, fluorescence, dispersion) characterization.
Besides the double tungstates also other laser and nonlinear materials
like KTP, RTP, BBO are under study.
