Abstract
The present invention addresses the problem of providing producing processes for garnet precursor microparticles (a precursor for microparticles of garnet structure) and microparticles of garnet structure. One of the processing processes comprises mixing ions of at least two elements with a basic substances that contain the at least two elements. The thin-film fluid is formed between at least two processing surfaces which are approachably and separably arranged facing each other with at least one of the processing surfaces rotating relative to the other. In the processing process, the precipitated microparticles are garnet precursor microparticles, and the molar ratio between the at least two elements in the garnet precursor microparticles is regulated by controlling the pH of the thin-film fluid after the mixing. Microparticles of garnet structure can be obtained by subjecting the garnet precursor microparticles to heat treatment. Specifically, the yttrium/aluminum molar ratio of yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) precursor microparticles is regulated by controlling the pH of the thin-film fluid after the mixing, YAG being an example of the crystal of garnet structure.
