Cerium‐doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate (Lu2SiO5:Ce, LSO:Ce) slurry with 35 vol.% solid content and viscosity of 70 mPa
·$ \cdot $s (at a shear rate of 4 s–1) was prepared via a 24‐h ball milling for the powder calcined at 1200°C and adding ammonium polyacrylate of 0.2 wt.%. Textured LSO:Ce ceramics were fabricated via slip casting in a vertical magnetic field and subsequently pressureless sintering of 1650°C and hot isostatic pressing. The maximum Lotgering factor f and relative density of the textured ceramics were 0.48% and 98.8%, respectively. Effects of grain size, dispersant, viscosity of slurry, and magnetic flux density on the grain orientation of LSO:Ce ceramics were systematically investigated. Based on the spatial state of grains, we proposed the rotation rule that LSO:Ce grains with or without space constraints in the slurry align along a and c‐axis under the induction of a strong magnetic field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
