Abstract

Neodymium doped YAG transparent ceramics were fabricated by vacuum reactive sintering method using commercial α-Al₂O₃, Y ₂O₃ and Nd₂O₃ powders as the starting materials with both tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and MgO as sintering aids. The morphologies and microstructure of the powders and Nd:YAG transparent ceramics were investigated. Fully dense Nd:YAG ceramics with average grain size of ∼10 μm were obtained by vacuum sintering at 1780 °C for 8 h. No pores and grain-boundary phases were observed. The in-line transmittance of the ceramic was 83.8% at 1064 nm.
