Floating Zone Growth of Sr Substituted Han Purple: Ba${}_{0.9}$Sr${}_{0.1}$CuSi${}_2$O${}_6$

Pascal Puphal, Stephan Allenspach, Christian Rüegg +1

We present a route to grow single crystals of Ba${}_{0.9}$Sr${}_{0.1}$CuSi${}_2$O${}_6$ suitable for inelastic neutron studies via the floating zone technique. Neutron single crystal d…
