Spark plasma sintering of BiFeO3
Dense BiFeO3 ceramics were prepared by a novel spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. The sintering was conducted at temperatures ranging from 675 to 750 8C under 70 MPa pressure. A bulk density value up to 96% of theoretical density was achieved in the process.

The absence of plasma in “spark plasma sintering” [PDF]
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) is a remarkable method for synthesizing and consolidating a large variety of both novel and traditional materials. There are a number of mechanisms proposed to account for the enhanced sintering abilities of the SPS process.
