Abstract
The present invention relates to single crystalline NaUO3, hydrothermal growth processes of making such single crystals and methods of using such single crystals. In particular, Applicants disclose single crystalline NaUO3 in the R32 space group. Unlike other powdered NaUO3, Applicants' single crystalline NaUO3 has a sufficient crystal size to be characterized and used in the fields of laser light, infrared countermeasures, nuclear fuel material, nuclear forensics and magnetic applications.
