We report the synthesis of single‐phased Nd/Si‐doped yttrium aluminum garnet powder via a solvothermal method by using ethanol as the solvent. The obtained powder exhibits a spherical shape, no agglomeration, and an average particle size of ∼300 nm, suitable for conventional powder processing. The effect of heat treatment on the lattice parameter and optical properties of the powder is also studied. The results are discussed in terms of Nd/Si solubility.
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.
