Translucent yttrium aluminum garnet: Microwave-assisted route to synthesis and processing

Abstract: A novel and fast microwave route is described for the synthesis of yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) and for its sintering to translucent bodies. Precursor was made by microwave decomposition (20 min) of aluminum tri-sec-butoxide and yttrium nitrate dissolved in ethyl acetate. The precursor, conventionally calcined at 1000 °C (1 h), was sintered in microwave using SiC as secondary heater for just 35 min. Resulting translucent YAG has a microhardness (HV) of 18.1 GPa and fracture toughness (KIC) of 4.3 MPa m1/2. A … Show more

“…This isotherm gives an expression encompassing the surface heterogeneity and the exponential distribution of active sites and their energies [13], [14]. The adsorption data were tested on the following linearized form of Freundlich adsorption isotherm by plotting q e verses Ce (6) where Ce is the amount adsorbed at equilibrium or the equilibrium concentration of adsorbate [mg.L -1 ], and n and K are the Freundlich constants characteristics of the system indicating the extent of the adsorption and the degree of non-linearity between metal solution concentrates and adsorption, respectively. Fig.…”

“…The versatility of sol-gel chemistry provides a means of controlling the shape, morphology and textural properties of the final materials [4], [5]. Sol-gel chemistry also provides a means of preparing mixed oxide phases and can be controlled on both the molecular and nanoscales [6], [7].…”

“…The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of as‐dried powders are shown in Figure . In Figure A (A 1 powder with 0 wt% TEOS), an endothermic peak below 200°C was accompanied by 6 wt% weight loss; it belonged to the removal of adsorbed water . Two sharp endothermic peaks could be observed in the range of 450°C‐550°C and 550°C‐700°C in DSC curve that were accompanied by 19 wt% weight loss in the TGA curve; these were due to the decomposition of nitrate ions and the removal of organic molecules (the decomposition of precipitant agent (urea molecules)), respectively .…”

“…The synthesis of undoped YAG powder and sintering of compacts with the use of microwave power of 2.45 GHz was described in [12], where a 45% transmission of 520 nm radiation was obtained in a 0.86 mm thick pellet. The use of the millimeter-wave power for the sintering of optical ceramics started in 2005 [13].…”
