Description:
Transparent 0.9 Pb ( Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) O 3 –0.1 PbTiO 3 (PMN-PT) based ceramics were prepared by a conventional solid-state synthesis without using a hot-press method. The ceramics became transparent when they were sintered in an O 2 atmosphere. The optical transmission increased with decreasing diameter of the calcined powder, which was controlled by the size of zirconia ball-milling media. Substitution of 3 mol% La for Pb in PMN-PT further increased the optical transmission to 68% at the wavelength of 2000 nm, which was comparable to that of hot-pressed Pb ( Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) O 3 - PbTiO 3 based transparent ceramics.
