(a)–(e) Red laser scattering and transmittance pictures of Y_2−x(LiZn)_xMo₃O₁₂ with x=0.3, 0.7, 1.0, 1.2, and 1.8. The laser beam is focused on the upper surface center of the pellets. The diameters of the pellets are about 0.8 cm. The heights of the pellets are about (a) 5 mm, (b) 5 mm, (c) 6 mm, (d) 5 mm, and (e) 6 mm. (f) Schematic diagram of laser scattering and transmittance in the ceramic grains.
