Effect of volume ratio on the performance of mid-wave infrared transparent Gd2O3–MgO composite ceramics (2023)
Journal Article
Yin, Z., Zhang, B., Mao, X., Zhang, J., Wang, S., Xue, Y., …Zhu, Q. (2023). Effect of volume ratio on the performance of mid-wave infrared transparent Gd2O3–MgO composite ceramics. Ceramics International, 49(9, Part A), 14607-14614. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ceramint.2023.01.051

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...

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...
