Polycrystalline, transparent YAG (Y3AI5O12) ceramics were fabricated by a solid‐state reaction method using high‐purity Al2O3 and Y2O3 powders. The mixed powder compacts were sintered at 1600° to 1850°C for 5 h under vacuum. Optical transmittance in the region between the ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths for YAG ceramics (1 mm thick) sintered at 1800°C was similar to that for a YAG single crystal.

Sepiolite is a very rare mineral in Japan and only one occurrence has been reported hitherto. The sepiolite from the Oeyama nickel mine would be speculated to attribute its formation to the reaction between serpentine rock and supergene water descending along fissures in the rock, considering from its thermal analysis curve and X-ray data. Masatomo Muchi , Yoshiaki Hoshino, Isao Furusato solved sufficiently. Sepiolite is a very rare mineral in Japan particularly, there being hitherto only one occurrence from Yoshikawa-mura, Fukuoka Prefecture described by Muraoka, Minato , Takano and Okamoto (1958), and it being found in serpentine rock distributed widely in the region.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
