摘要: 采用注浆成型和真空烧结制备了Nd:YAG激光透明陶瓷,研究了烧结温度和时间对致密化过程的影响。研究结果表明:在1050~1300 ℃之间坯体发生明显的收缩生成YAM和YAP相;在1300~1420 ℃,生成YAG相。随着烧结温度的增加,陶瓷中气孔含量减少,晶粒尺寸长大。在1700~1800 ℃烧结20 h能够获得完全致密的Nd:YAG陶瓷样品。Abstract: Dense Nd:YAG transparent ceramic was obtained by slip casting and vacuum sintering. The effect of sintered temperature and dwell time on the densification and microstructure development of Nd:YAG transparent ceramics were investigated. The YAP and YAM formation appeared from 1050 ℃ up to 1300 ℃, resulting in a significant densification. YAG was obtained in the vicinity of 1400 ℃, whereas beyond 1400 ℃, no other phase was detected. The densification and grain size increased with the increasing of the sintered temperature. Pore free Nd:YAG transparent ceramic with a grain size of 5 m to 10 m was obtained between 1700 ℃ and 1800 ℃ sintering for 20 h.
