M. Ozvoldova et al., The influence of preparation technology on luminescence properties of Y-TZP and ZrSiO4 ceramics, CERAM-SILIK, 44(4), 2000, pp. 142-145
The photoluminescence spectra of the ZrSiO4 and 3Y-TZP ceramics excited by
laser irradiation with the wavelength of 325 nm are presented. The phase co
mposition of the ceramics is determined by using X-ray diffraction measurem
ents. The spectra air recorded in visible region at the room temperature. T
he shape of the blue-green emission spectra depends on technological parame
ters, such as the applied pressure and the sintering temperature.
