An optimum sintering condition explored by changing the combination of the applied pressure and sintering temperature led to an in-line transmission close to the maximum reported for alumina in earlier studies. The effects of pressure on both grain size and transmission are strongly dependent on the sintering temperature: negligible effect at low temperatures and significant effect at high temperatures.}, pages = {116--118}, title = {High-pressure spark plasma sintering of MgO-doped transparent alumina}, volume = {120}, year = {2012} }
