Abstract
A method and apparatus for sintering flat ceramics using a mesh or lattice is described herein.
Claims33
A method of sintering a ceramic to produce a sintered ceramic plate, comprising:
- heating a ceramic precursor material between a first mesh and a second mesh;
- wherein at least a first portion of a first side of the ceramic precursor material contacts the first mesh and at least a second portion of a second side of the ceramic precursor material contacts the second mesh during heating, thereby producing a sintered ceramic plate;
- wherein the ceramic precursor material is in the form of an unsintered ceramic compact comprising ceramic particles;
- and
- wherein the sintered ceramic plate is a translucent phosphor.
