Sol-gel preparation and electrical behaviour of Ln: YAG (Ln = Ce, Nd, Ho, Er)

A sol-gel method has been developed to prepare pure yttrium aluminum garnet, Y3Al5O12 (YAG), and rare-earth substituted (Ce-Y3Al5O12, Nd-Y3Al5O12, Ho-Y3Al5O12, and Er-Y3Al5O12) samples. The XRD patterns of the polycrystalline powders sintered at 1000ºC showed the formation of monophasic garnet mater...
