Transparent Ceramics, often known as optical ceramics, are polycrystalline materials made by ceramic technology with a certain light transmittance.
Transparent ceramics are a type of ceramic that is optically
transparent. Transparent ceramics have a glassy, crystal-like appearance. These
ceramics are employed in a variety of ways as optically transparent materials.
They are silica-based glass derivatives created by crystallization. Transparent
ceramics are used to replace traditional glass. Some of the primary tactics
used by industry competitors to get a competitive edge in the transparent
ceramics market include new product launches and acquisitions.

The transparent ceramics market is being driven by rising demand from the optoelectronic segment. The high manufacturing costs connected with Transparent Ceramics are proving to be a stumbling hurdle for the market's expansion. The cost of transparent ceramics rises when raw materials such as sapphire rise in price, raising the price of finished goods. As a result, businesses opt to use less expensive alternatives.
Transparent polycrystalline ceramics have replaced their
single crystal counterparts in a variety of applications, including laser hosts,
infrared (IR) windows/domes, lamp envelopes, and transparent armors, owing to
their processing flexibility in fabricating items of large sizes and complex
shapes, as well as their cost-effectiveness. Ceramics with great optical
transparency need high purity and density. High purity precursor powders are
required to create high purity end products.
Various sintering procedures, such as high-pressure (HP)
sintering, high isostatic pressure (HIP) sintering, vacuum sintering, and spark
plasma sintering, have been used to achieve high density (SPS). Simultaneously,
multiple wet chemical synthesis techniques have been employed to create
precursor powders with dramatically increased sinterability at submicron or
even nanoscale sizes. The mechanical and thermal qualities of transparent
ceramics for armour and IR window/dome applications should be excellent. As a
result, nanosized ceramics and nanocomposite ceramics have recently received a
lot of interest. The goal of this study was to describe the most recent advances
in transparent ceramic technology, materials, and applications.

It is organised by beginning with a quick introduction and then going into detail on the various sintering procedures used to make transparent ceramics. After that, various uses of transparent ceramics will be examined, as well as their optical, mechanical, and thermal characteristics. It will be ended with a discussion on transparent ceramic materials' future trends and views, as well as some key challenges.
