AB  - Yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG, Y3Al5O12) and yttrium aluminum garnet doped with neodymium (Nd:YAG) single crystals were grown by the Czochralski technique. The critical diameter and the critical rate of rotation were calculated. Suitable polishing and etching solutions were determined. As a result of our experiments, the transparent YAG and pale pink Nd:YAG single crystals were produced. The obtained crystals were studied by X-ray diffraction, Raman and IR spectroscopy. The crystal structure was confirmed by XRD. The 15 Raman and 17 IR modes were observed. The Raman and IR spectroscopy results are in accordance with X-ray diffraction analysis. The obtained YAG and Nd:YAG single crystals were without core and of good optical quality. The absence of a core was confirmed by viewing polished crystal slices. Also, it is important to emphasize that the obtained Nd:YAG single crystal has a concentration of 0.8 wt.% Nd3(+) that is characteristic for laser materials.

AB  - In this paper, we used the Czochralski method to obtain good quality yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG, Y3Al5O12) and yttrium aluminium garnet doped with neodymium (Nd: YAG) crystals. The investigations were based on the growth mechanisms and the shape of the liquid/solid interface crystallization front on the crystal properties and incorporation of Nd3+ ions. The obtained single YAG and Nd: YAG crystals were studied by use of x-ray diffraction, Raman and IR spectroscopy. There are strong metal oxygen vibrations in the region of 650-800 cm(-1) which are characteristics of Al-O bond: peaks at 784/854, 719/763 and 691/707 cm(-1) correspond to asymmetric stretching vibrations in tetrahedral arrangement. Peaks at 566/582, 510/547 and 477/505 cm(-1) are asymmetric stretching vibrations and 453/483 cm(-1) is the symmetric vibration of the Al-O bond in octahedral arrangements of the garnet structure. Lower energy peaks correspond to translation and vibration of cations in different coordinations-tetrahedral, octahedral and dodecahedral in the case of the lowest modes.

AB  - Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized in alginate beads for possible application in non-aqueous or microaqueous reaction systems. An electrostatic droplet generation technique was used for production of small diameter ( lt  1 mm) lipase-alginate beads. This technique provided negligible loss of the lipase (immobilization efficiencies were 98.2-99.2%). Under optimal immobilization conditions (applied potential 4.9 kV, needle gauge 21, 2% sodium alginate solution) the lipase-alginate beads, 0.65 mm in diameter, retained enzyme activity equivalent to 75% that of free lipase. The activity of the immobilized lipase was verified in the reaction of palm oil hydrolysis in a lecithin/isooctane system. The reaction rate with alginate-immobilized lipase was lower than with the free enzyme but the final conversions were approximately the same (similar to 74%). Immobilized lipase could be used for up to three reaction cycles with little loss of activity.
