Single crystal growth, characterization, piezoelectric properties, and spectral analysis for Zn<sub>4</sub>B<sub>6</sub>O<sub>13</sub> and Ni:Zn<sub>4</sub>B<sub>6</sub>O<sub>13</sub> crystals
Large-sized, high-quality Ni:ZBO crystals were successfully grown. Doping with Ni ions resulted in improvements to both the thermal expansion coefficient and the piezoelectric constant of the crystals.
