FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to technology of growing monocrystals of barium-sodium meta-fluoroborate Ba2Na3(B3O6)2F for use in terahertz range from 0.3 THz to 1 THz as wave plates, polarisers, as well as in air terahertz photonics. Monocrystal of Ba2Na3(B3O6)2F is grown from high-temperature solution by lowering temperature of solution-melt on a nucleating agent that is retractable and rotating oriented along an optical axis. Solvent used is sodium-barium borate NaBaBO3. Crystallisation is performed in a Ba2Na3(B3O6)2F-NaBaBO3 system at ratio Ba2Na3(B3O6)2F:NaBaBO3, equal to 60-80:20-40 mol%. Barium-sodium meta-fluoroborate Ba2Na3(B3O6)2(F) has in range from 0.3 THz to 1 THz high birefringence (Δn/n = 0.16) and low absorption (less than 10 cm-1).
EFFECT: technical result consists in reproducible production of monocrystals of Ba2Na3(B3O6)2F of optical quality, containing no visible inclusions with coefficient of output - 3 75/100-3 95/100 g/(kg·deg).
