Abstract
Abstract Highly sinterable Yb:Lu2O3 nano-powders without hard agglomeration were synthesized via a highly efficient spray co-precipitation method. The effects of the spray speeds on morphology and composition of the powders were investigated. The results showed that the composition and dispersion of precursor powders changed with the spray speed. When the spray speed reached 40 mL/min, the particles were spherical and showed higher uniformity. The pure phase Yb:Lu2O3 powder was obtained after calcining at 1000 °C for 2 h. The calcined powders were ball milled and dry-formed to prepare green body. Then the Yb:Lu2O3 transparent ceramic was fabricated by vacuum sintering at 1500 °C for 8 h and further hot isostatic pressing in an argon atmosphere.. The in-line optical transmittance of Yb:Lu2O3 transparent ceramic reached 82.05%@1000 nm and 81.08%@400 nm, respectively, and it had submicron level average grain size, which is an effective way to improve the optical properties of the transparent ceramic.
