Sesquioxide transparent ceramics such as Y 203, Lu203, and Sc203, have received a great attention as potential high powder solid-state laser hosts. To meet the laser applications requirements, porosity of the ceramics must be lower than 0.01 %. Densification of ceramics is closely related to quality...
