Accordingly, differential thermal analysis scans were performed thoroughly to study the mechanism of crystallization kinetics. The aim of this investigation is to discover the complicated mechanism of crystallization process in the presence of co-additives and ac- cordingly find a way for increasing the transparency of glass ceramics. It is shown that the bulk （3D） growth is intensively increased by the enhancement of Y203. Then again, reducing nucleation and increasing growth mechanisms were recog- nized for the LAS system in the presence of Y2O3. Results of the investigation illustrate that when co-additives are added to glasses, it is necessary to nucleate the optical component separately before the growth process.展开更多
