Abstract

The effect of 2 mol % of P2O5 or TiO2 on the crystallization of yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) in Na2O-SiO2-Y2O3-Fe2O3 glass ceramics has been investigated by X-ray and Mossbauer spectroscopic studies. These studies indicate that the glass ceramics containing P2O5 are more favourable for the crystallization of YIG. Analysis of the results suggest that an optimum growth temperature for crystallization of the YIG phase is 800° C in the sample with P2O5 as the nucleating agent. The sample heat-treated at the growth temperature for 40 h is not as favourable for crystallization of the YIG phase as the sample which is given a two-stage heat-treatment.
