ABSTRACT = {Silicon nitride (Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>) ceramics with outstanding comprehensive properties, have become important candidate materials for components like radomes and antenna windows. In this study, the vat photopolymerization (VPP) technique was used to fabricate Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ceramic radomes. Our research centered on optimizing the curing properties of ceramic slurries and precisely regulating the comprehensive properties of the ceramics. Several methods were proposed to modify the curing depth of Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ceramic slurry, including thermosetting resin coating, sintering aid coating, oxidation coating, double coating, etc. Moreover, a pore-forming agent modification method was also proposed, which enabled the VPP printing of Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ceramic parts with well-controlled pore structure. Subsequently, the correlations among process parameters, microstructure, and the properties of Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ceramics were successfully established. This research intended to offer a valuable reference for the further research and application of Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ceramics in the radome field.},
