透光性ナノ構造γ-Al2O3の熱処理による光学特性変化

AI解説:
多くのセラミック材料は、粒界や粒界に存在する気孔により光の散乱や吸収が起こり、光透過性が乏しいことが知られています。しかしながら、これらの要因を高密度の焼結によって排除することで、高い光透過性を持つセラミックスを得ることが可能です。アルミナは広いバンドギャップを持ち、近赤外から可視光の範囲での光吸収がほとんど起こらないため、光透過材料として期待されています。本研究では、高温環境下での使用を想定し、熱処理によるナノ構造γ-Al2O3の光透過性の変化を詳細に調査しました。

著者による要約:
Nano-structured γ-Al2O3 ceramics have been pelletized under a pressure of 2.5 GPa on uniaxial compaction of nano-size particles. Although the obtained γ-Al2O3 ceramics show low density, they have a good transparency. For estimating the influence of particle size on the transparency of nano-structured γ-Al2O3 ceramics, nano-sized particles with four different sizes have been used. Nano-structured γ-Al2O3 ceramics made of particles whose size is < 10 nm show a transmittance above 40%. Transmittance decreases with increasing particle diameter. In the case of particle size >20 nm the transmittance is less than 20%. This phenomenon is explained by Rayleigh scattering, which is applicable to a particle diameter much smaller than the wavelength of the incident light. The change in transmittance of nano-structured alumina ceramics on heat treatment is not observed below 1123 K. However the transmittance remarkably decreases at above 1223 K because of rapid grain growths with phase transition, although this temperature is 250 K lower than the γ->α-phase transition temperature (1473 K) of bulk alumina. When the sample produced from 11.2 nm particles was heat-treated at 1173 K, the transmittance was maintained for 2 h and then decreased with increasing the annealing time. At this time, the transmittance slowly decreased with gram growth without phase transition between 2 h and 6 h, and then it steeply decreased with grain growth after 6 h with phase transition.
