Previously, it was accepted that, to be transparent ceramics, materials should have an …

The Nd: YAG nanopowders were synthesized at 800–1300° C via a modified co-
precipitation method. Nd: YAG transparent ceramics were fabricated by vacuum sintering at …

YAG transparent ceramics singly doped with Er3+ and codoped with Yb3+ and Er3+ have
been produced by vacuum sintering of the commercial powders. Prior to sintering powders …

Large-size and thick yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) transparent ceramics with complex
shapes were successfully fabricated by solid-state reaction and vacuum sintering using …

Reactive sintering of YAG based ceramics is generally performed under high vacuum in
graphite-free furnaces in order to guarantee the elimination of pores and absence of any …
