The reactions of rare earth (RE) acetates with iron acetylacetonate in 1,4-butanediol at 300 °C (glycothermal reaction) yielded two novel phases depending on the ionic size of the RE element: one was obtained for Er-Lu and the other for Tb and Dy. The former phase was hexagonal REFeO3, while the latter phase has not been identified. The reaction of Y or Ho acetate yielded the mixture of these two phases. When the reactions were carried out in the presence of seed crystals of yttrium aluminum garnet (Y3Al5O12), these phases were not formed but RE iron garnet (RE3Fe5O12) grew on the seed, which suggests that spontaneous nucleation of RE iron garnet does not occur, but crystal growth proceeds easily under the glycothermal conditions. Hydrothermal reaction of the same starting materials yielded a mixture of Fe2O3 and an amorphous RE phase.

AbstractThe spectra of luminescence and magnetic circular polarization of luminescence of praseodymium–yttrium aluminum garnet Pr^3+ : Y_3Al_5O_12 (PrYAG) are studied in the visible spectral region at temperature T = 300 K. An analysis of spectral dependences of magnetooptical and optical spectra makes it possible to identify optical 4  f –4  f -transitions between Stark sublevels of multiplets ^3 P _0, ^3 P _1, ^3 Н _5, and ^3 Н _6 in PrYAG. It was shown that an important role in the spectrum of the degree of magnetic circular polarization of luminescence of this paramagnetic garnet is played by the effect of quantum-mechanical J – J mixing of states of Stark singlets ^3 Н _5 and ^3 Н _6 of non-Kramer rare-earth ion Pr^3+ in the “green” luminescence band related to forbidden 4  f → 4  f transition ^3 P _0 → ^3 Н _5 in the visible spectral region. To interpret the spectra of magnetic circular polarization of luminescence, the energy of experimentally determined Stark sublevels of multiplets under study, their irreducible representations and wave functions determined by numerical simulation of the energy spectrum of the rare-earth ion Pr^3+ in the garnet structure are used.

The validity of controlling interfacial toughness in reaction-formed composites was explored using solid-state reaction processing and microanalysis techniques. A variety of rare-earth oxides was added to a yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG)/alumina powder mixture and then melted in air. Some melts retained the crystallography and microstructure of the pure, binary YAG–alumina eutectic. Using scanning transmission electron microscopy in conjunction with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, rare-earth ions were observed both to segregate to the YAG/alumina interface and to form a third phase. Some evidence of increased crack deflection at these interfaces was observed via indentation fracture.

In this study, the synthesis and magnetic properties of the rare-earth iron garnets Sm3Fe5O12, Pr3Fe5O12, and Er3Fe5O12 (in the form of powders and thin films) are reported. According to the composition, shape, and size of particles, the optimal precipitant for the synthesis of Sm3Fe5O12, Pr3Fe5O12, and Er3Fe5O12 films is an aqueous solution. The parameters for the synthesis of powders and films of the rare-earth iron garnets with micro- and nano-particles have been investigated and selected. The magnetic properties of these materials were studied; field dependencies of the magnetic moment (hysteresis loops) of nanostructured powders of iron garnets of samarium, praseodymium, and erbium in the range of +20 kOe to −20 kOe were obtained. The structural features of the Al2O3 substrate on which the films were formed are also shown.
