概要（目的・用途・実施内容）/ Abstract (Aim, Use Applications and Contents)
Uniaxial pressure is a powerful tool to modify the properties of materials. In the case of the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4, uniaxial pressure can be used to enhance the superconducting transition temperature from 1.5 to about 3.5K. Due to the brittle nature of oxide materials, it is desirable to glue the sample crystal on a substrate material to be used as mechanical support. We are developing a technique that involves using single-crystal quartz as substrate material, over which Sr2RuO4 crystals are glued. To achieve homogeneous transfer of strain to the Sr2RuO4, it is necessary to slice single-crystal quartz with high precision in the desired size. We compared the performance of a dicing saw using different blade grain sizes (2000 vs 400) and obtained information on how to improve this cutting procedure.

Uniaxial pressure is a powerful tool to modify the properties of materials. In the case of the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4, uniaxial pressure can be used to enhance the superconducting transition temperature from 1.5 to about 3.5K. Due to the brittle nature of oxide materials, a substrate material to be used as mechanical support for the pressurisation is desirable. We are developing a technique that involves using single-crystal quartz as substrate material, over which Sr2RuO4 crystals are glued. To achieve homogeneous transfer of strain to the Sr2RuO4, it is necessary to slice single-crystal quartz with high precision in the desired size.
結果と考察 / Results and Discussion
For our experiment, it is highly important to cut single-crystal quartz in the desired size. For this purpose, we used a 13.95 mm wafer of 0.16 mm thickness and cut several rectangular pieces of length 4 mm and varying width between 0.35 and 0.25 mm (Fig. 1). The yield was close to 100%, as most cut pieces were usable for our experiment. However, the edges of the cut rectangles are a bit rough (Fig. 2) and should be improved in the following cutting rounds.
