Problems solved by technology

[0006] Cr reported in the above literature 4+ : YAG transparent ceramics generally have problems such as low conversion rate of tetravalent chromium or low transmittance, which is far from reaching Cr 4+ : The optical quality of YAG single crystal cannot be used to achieve laser output or Q-switching. The main reason is that no suitable sintering aid system is selected.

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of transparent tetravalent chromium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet ceramics. The preparation method comprises the following steps: weighing raw material powder according to a stoichiometric ratio of a to-be-prepared ceramic component structural formula (Al1-xCrx)5CayY3-yO12 (x is not smaller than 0.001 and not larger than 0.01, and y is not smaller than 10x and not larger than 40x); adding a sintering aid and a charge compensating agent; mixing by ball-milling to obtain a slurry material; drying and sieving the slurry material and then molding to obtain a biscuit; calcining to remove volatile impurities; sintering the biscuit in vacuum at the temperature of 1730 to 1850 DEG C for 4 to 30 hours; subsequently annealing in air at the temperature of 1300 to 1550 DEG C for 10 to 25 hours to obtain compact Cr<4+>:YAG transparent ceramics. The Cr<4+>:YAG transparent ceramics prepared by the method disclosed by the invention are high in compactness, good in uniformity, free of segregation, reasonable in grain graduation distribution, free of abnormal grain growth, free of grain interior and intergranular pores and high in penetration rate, and have the conditions for being a laser gain medium.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of tetravalent chromium doped yttrium aluminum garnet transparent ceramics, relate to a kind of orthoethyl silicate (TEOS), B 2 o 3 and CaCO 3 Preparation of Cr with excellent optical quality and high conversion of tetravalent chromium as additive 4+ : YAG transparent ceramics, belonging to the field of advanced ceramic preparation. Background technique [0002] In 1964, Shkadarevich et al. prepared tetravalent chromium-doped YAG single crystal for the first time by pulling method, and it was widely used as a gain medium for tunable lasers. Compared with conventional gain media (Cr 4+ :Mg 2 o 4 , Ti 3+ :Al 2 o 3 etc.) compared to Cr 4+ :YAG single crystal has the advantages of high quantum efficiency, good stability and long fluorescence lifetime. Not only that, because tetravalent chromium ions have saturable absorption characteristics at 1000nm to 1200nm, they can not only be us...
