DTA-TG,XRD,SEM and IR spectrum analyzers were used to investigate the structure and morphology of the precursor and the sintered poly-crystal. The results indicates that the weight loss is about 40% as the powder calcined at 1200 ℃,and well-crystallized YAG powder is obtained with particle size in the range of 100~150 nm. The SEM analysis of the fracture surface of the sintered body shows that the grain size is about 1~2 μm and the pore volume is very low.
