Abstract

Yttrium-aluminum garnet (YAG) nanoparticles are synthesized by the coprecipitation of yttrium and aluminum hydroxides in a microreactor with freely impinging jets, followed by the thermal treatment of the coprecipitation products. According to the results of X-ray phase analysis, the coprecipitated hydroxides are X-ray amorphous. Analysis of the product of the thermal treatment of hydroxides at 1000°C for 10 min indicates the formation of Y3Al5O12 crystals. The method developed by us makes it possible to carry out the synthesis quickly, ensures low energy consumption, does not require laborious operations, and is technologically advanced and easily scalable.
