Thermal properties and calcium-magnesium-alumino-silicate (CMAS) interaction of novel γ-phase ytterbium-doped yttrium disilicate (γ-Y1.5Yb0.5Si2O7) environmental barrier coating material (2024)
Journal Article

Rare-earth disilicates are promising candidates for thermal and environmental barrier coatings (TEBC) in gas turbines that safeguard SiCf/SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) from thermal degradation and environmental attacks. Here, we report a syste...

Effect of volume ratio on the performance of mid-wave infrared transparent Gd2O3–MgO composite ceramics (2023)
Journal Article

Gd2O3–MgO composite ceramics are promising candidates for preparing protective mid-wave infrared (MWIR) windows. However, owing to the different crystal structures of Gd2O3 and MgO after the sintering process, the volume ratio of the two phases must...

Shrinkage features, microstructure evolution and properties of Gd2O3-MgO optical composite ceramics with Zr as phase stabilizer (2023)
Journal Article

A novel composite ceramic, composed of equal-volumetric Zr-stabilized Gd2O3 and MgO phases, was prepared to be transparent in mid-wave infrared range. Zr stabilized Gd2O3 is proved to have a lower lattice parameter (10.7516Å) using XRD refinement. Pr...
