Abstract

Phosphoric acid ester, a typical component of commercial dispersants, affects the functional properties of Gd1.494Y1.494Ce0.012Al2Ga3O12 ceramics. In sintered ceramics, the residual phosphorus can reach up to 40–70% of the introduced amount. The admixture of phosphorus located on the surfaces of the particles activates the grain growth during sintering and leads to the formation of secondary phases of rare-earth phosphates. With increasing phosphorus concentration, the density and optical transmittance of ceramics decrease. A relatively small amount of phosphorus can improve the luminescence properties of ceramics but large amounts can increase phosphorescence and reduce the scintillation light yield.
