Abstract
It is believed that the most important properties of nano-glass ceramics are their optical properties. In this chapter, the structure, processing, properties, and application of the most important nano-glass ceramics are thoroughly discussed, with an emphasis on the experimental and practical aspects of the subject. The luminescent glass ceramics, which have attracted considerable attention, in recent years, such as mullite and spinel glass ceramics doped with transition metal ions, and especially oxyfluoride glass ceramics, containing rare-earth-doped fluoride nano-crystals, have been given extensive coverage. Structure properties and application of more conventional low thermal expansion glass ceramics, such as the stuffed β-quartzss nano-glass ceramics, and the most recent applications of nano-glass ceramics such as transparent YAG glass ceramics, have also been discussed.
