Improvements in Atmosphere Sintering of Transparent PLZT Ceramics

by: Gary S. Snow
Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Vol. 56, No. 9. (1973), pp. 479-480.

X Abstract

An improved atmosphere sintering process was developed for fabricating large transparent PLZT plates for electrooptic applications. Cold-pressed 9/85/35 PLZT slugs were sintered in O2 in Pt crucibles for ~45 min at 1180oC and were then heat-treated in air for 60 h at 1200oC in Al2O3 crucibles containing PbZrO3 atmosphere powder. Transparent plates as large as 8.4 cm in diameter and I cm thick were thus fabricated. A mechanism is proposed which qualitatively accounts for the success of this process.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
