Although these nano-structured γ-Al2O3 ceramics showed low density, they were fairly translucent. The relationship between transmittance and thickness of these specimens can be described by lambert-Beer's law. The nano-structured γ-Al2O3 ceramics with different particle diameter and thickness have been prepared in order to clarify the dependence of particle size on the optical transmittance. The optical transmittance decreased with increasing initial particle diameter. In the case of 0.20 mm thickness samples, the γ-Al2O3 with 5.6 nm initial particle diameter showed an optical transmittance of about 60%. However, the optical transmittance decreases less than 5% when initial particle diameter is increased to 34.4 nm. This phenomenon could be explained by Rayleigh scattering, which is the scattering due to the particle diameter being much smaller than the wavelength of light. In these visible regions(500-800 nm), a scattering coefficient related with Rayleigh scattering was inversely related to the fourth power of the wavelength and directly proportional to the square of the grain size.}, pages = {761--765}, title = {透光性ナノ構造γ-Al2O3の光学特性及び粒径依存性}, volume = {110}, year = {2002} }
