Description

Preparation method of LuAG Ce transparent ceramic and LuAG Ce transparent ceramic
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of optical functional ceramic materials, relates to a preparation method of LuAG Ce transparent ceramic and LuAG Ce transparent ceramic, and particularly relates to a method for preparing LuAG Ce transparent ceramic by vacuum sintering.
Background
LuAG is short for Lu-aluminum garnet, and its chemical formula is Lu 3 Al 5 O 12 Is prepared from Lu 2 O 3 And Al 2 O 3 The formed solid solution belongs to a cubic crystal system, has a garnet structure, does not have a birefringence effect, and can be prepared into transparent ceramics with excellent optical properties. Simultaneously, the LuAG has high density (6.73 g/cm) 3 94% of BGO density), high melting point (2010 ℃), high effective atomic number (Z) eff 60), good mechanical property, and optical and physicochemical properties stable under long-term radiation, especially rare earth RE 3+ The 5d-4f transition of the ions can generate nanosecond (ns) -level fast luminescence attenuation, up-conversion luminescence or laser, and the like, so the rare earth RE doped LuAG-RE transparent ceramic has important potential application prospects in the fields of scintillation detection, up-conversion luminescence, solid laser and the like. The matrix is added with small amount of rare earth ions (for exampleSuch as Ce 3+ ) As an activator, the fluorescent material is a novel rapid scintillator.
Currently, the solid phase reaction method is one of the main methods for preparing LuAG ceramics. The representative Shanghai silicate research institute in the field adopts self-made 40nm Lu for the first time 2 O 3 And Al having a commercially available average particle diameter of 200nm 2 O 3 、CeO 2 The transparent LuAG Ce ceramic is prepared by a powder solid-phase reaction method under the condition of vacuum sintering at 1760 ℃ for 10 hours, the transmittance of the transparent LuAG Ce ceramic is 56 percent in a visible light range, is only 67 percent of the theoretical transmittance (83.3 percent) of the LuAG, and 30 percent of the transparent LuAG Ce ceramic is scattered by a grain boundary phase and air holes. In addition, the high sintering temperature of 1760 ℃ also limits the large-scale application.
In addition, the quality of the transparent ceramic prepared by the solid-phase reaction method strongly depends on the activity and the morphology of the raw material powder, the smaller the particle size of the powder is, the higher the surface activity is, the more the morphology is close to a sphere, the easier the dispersion is, the more complete the growth of crystal grains during sintering is, and the fewer crystal boundary phases and air holes are. However, the nano-scale powder with small particle size is easy to agglomerate, and needs to be finely dispersed and impurities introduced during dispersion are removed during use. At present, no relevant reports and patents of preparing LuAG: Ce by adopting nano-scale powder with the particle size less than 50nm as a raw material and performing vacuum sintering at low temperature (<1750 ℃ vacuum sintering temperature) are found because the fine dispersion and impurity removal of the powder are difficult to control.

According to the invention, the green body is further pre-sintered after being pressed, because in the process of pressing the powder into the green body, air is mixed in to cause that the exterior of the green body is tightly sintered when the green body is sintered in a vacuum atmosphere, and the internal gas cannot be discharged in time to cause cracking or deformation.
Further, the vacuum sintering is carried out in a vacuum furnace, the temperature is increased at a certain sintering temperature increasing speed in the sintering process, and the temperature is increased to 1600-1700 ℃ for heat preservation.
Preferably, the heat preservation time exceeds 24h, the invention further prolongs the heat preservation time, can further correspondingly reduce the sintering temperature, and simultaneously finds that the transmittance of the transparent ceramic is improved by prolonging the heat preservation time.
Further, the pre-sintering time of the blank is 4-6 h, and the temperature is 1200-1250 ℃; and drying the ball-milled mixture, and then calcining for 4-6 hours at 1100-1150 ℃.
