Crystal growth of perovskite chalcogenide BaZrS$_3$ and Ruddlesden-Popper phase Ba$_3$Zr$_2$S$_7$

BaZrS$_3$ and Ba$_3$Zr$_2$S$_7$ crystals were successfully grown with flux method using BaCl$_2$ flux. Rocking curves of the crystals show a full-width-at-half-maximum of 0.011$^circ$ for BaZrS$_3$ and 0.027$^circ$ for Ba$_3$Zr$_2$S$_7$, respectively. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis for BaZrS$_3$ showed space group of $Pnma$ wit...More
