2. Yttrium aluminium garnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium_aluminium_garnet

   Yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG, Y 3 Al 5 O 12) is a synthetic crystalline material of the garnet group. It is a cubic yttrium aluminium oxide phase, with other examples being YAlO 3 (YAP [2]) in a hexagonal or an orthorhombic, perovskite-like form, and the monoclinic Y 4 Al 2 O 9 (YAM [3]).

3. Yttrium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium

   Yttrium, iron, aluminium, and gadolinium garnets (e.g. Y 3 (Fe,Al) 5 O 12 and Y 3 (Fe,Gd) 5 O 12) have important magnetic properties. [15] YIG is also very efficient as an acoustic energy transmitter and transducer. [74] Yttrium aluminium garnet (Y 3 Al 5 O 12 or YAG) has a hardness of 8.5 and is also used as a gemstone in jewelry (simulated ...

4. Yttrium iron garnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium_iron_garnet

   Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) is a kind of synthetic garnet, with chemical composition Y 3 Fe 2 (FeO 4) 3, or Y 3 Fe 5 O 12. It is a ferrimagnetic material [1] with a Curie temperature of 560 K. [2] YIG may also be known as yttrium ferrite garnet, or as iron yttrium oxide or yttrium iron oxide, the latter two names usually associated with powdered ...

5. Nd:YAG laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nd:YAG_laser

   Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; Nd:Y 3 Al 5 O 12) is a crystal that is used as a lasing medium for solid-state lasers. The dopant , neodymium in the +3 oxidation state, Nd(III), typically replaces a small fraction (1%) of the yttrium ions in the host crystal structure of the yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), since the two ions are ...

6. YIG sphere - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YIG_sphere

   The YIG spheres themselves are on the order of 0.5 mm in diameter and are manufactured from slightly larger cubes of diced material by tumbling, as is done in the manufacture of jewelry. The garnet is mounted on a ceramic rod, and a pair of small loops around the sphere couple fields into and out of the sphere; the loops are half-turns ...
