Lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO3) single crystal is the most important industrial, large-scale high-temperature superconducting film substrate single crystal material. By using the Czochralski method, single crystals and substrates with a diameter of 2 inches and larger can be obtained. It has good match with YBaCuO and other high temperature superconductor materials and lattice, low dielectric constant and small microwave loss, so it is suitable for making high temperature superconductor microwave electronic devices (such as high temperature superconductor microwave filter in remote communication). It has great practical and potential application prospects. Get a Quote Now! For other semiconductor materials, please check our Semiconductor Materials catalog page.

Typical application:

Lanthanum aluminate single crystal is a good substrate material for epitaxial growth of high temperature superconducting thin films and giant magnetic thin films because of its good lattice matching for a variety of perovskite structure materials. Its dielectric properties are suitable for low loss microwave and dielectric resonance applications.
