Highly transparent yttrium titanate (Y2Ti2O7) ceramics were fabricated by vacuum sintering using co-precipitated powders for the first time. The effects of the powder calcination temperature on the phase composition, morphology of the calcined powders, and on the microstructure and transmittance of the Y2Ti2O7 ceramics were investigated. When the calcination temperature was above 850 °C, pure phase Y2Ti2O7 nanopowders with high sintering activity were obtained. Transparent Y2Ti2O7 ceramics were obtained after vacuum sintered at 1600 °C for 6 h and annealed at 1100 °C for 5 h in air. The highest transmittance reached 73% at 1000 nm when the calcination temperature was 1150 °C. The measured refractive index of Y2Ti2O7 ceramics was higher than 2.24 at the wavelength range of 350–1000 nm, making it a promising candidate for optical devices.

共沉淀粉末制成的高度透明的钛酸钇(Y 2 Ti 2 O 7)陶瓷
首次使用共沉淀粉末通过真空烧结制备了高度透明的钛酸钇(Y 2 Ti 2 O 7)陶瓷。研究了粉末煅烧温度对相组成,煅烧粉末形貌以及Y 2 Ti 2 O 7陶瓷的显微结构和透射率的影响。当煅烧温度高于850℃时,获得具有高烧结活性的纯相Y 2 Ti 2 O 7纳米粉。透明Y 2 Ti 2 O 7在1600℃下真空烧结6小时并在1100℃下在空气中退火5小时后,获得陶瓷。当煅烧温度为1150°C时,最高透射率在1000 nm处达到73%。在350-1000 nm的波长范围内,Y 2 Ti 2 O 7陶瓷的测量折射率高于2.24,这使其成为光学器件的有希望的候选者。
