Lasing quality 8 at.% Yb:Lu2O3 laser ceramics were fabricated using nanocrystalline Yb:Lu2O3 powders synthesized with a modified coprecipitation method and either (NH4)2SO4 or PAA (Poly acrylic acid) as a dispersant. Although using (NH4)2SO4 as a dispersant the calcinated Yb:Lu2O3 powders could have...
