Abstract

Abstract In this work, the TAG transparent ceramics doped with 0.4 wt.% TEOS and different concentration of MgO were fabricated by a reactive sintering process under vacuum sintering combined with hot isostatic pressing (HIP) treatment. The effect of MgO on the microstructure evolution and optical properties of delivered ceramics were investigated. The results showed that the TAG ceramics doped with 0.4 wt.% TEOS and 0.1 wt.% MgO exhibited the optimum optical transmittance, which can reach about 81% in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) regions. The addition of MgO inhibited the grain growth and accelerated the densification of TAG ceramic at the sintering temperature reached about 1600 °C.
