The aging behavior of 3-mol%-yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (3Y-TZP) ceramics sintered in air and in reducing conditions was investigated at 140{\deg}C in water vapor. It was observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) that 3Y-TZP samples…
The structural evolution of two selected compositions of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ), with 3mol% (3YSZ) and 8mol% (8YSZ) of Y2O3, have been investigated under pressure using in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman…
The tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation of zirconia has been the subject of extensive studies over the last 20 years [1-4]. The main features of the transformation have been identified and its martensitic nature is now widely…
We describe, within an ab-initio approach, the stabilization of the tetragonal phase vs. the monoclinic one in Yttrium-doped Zirconia. The process is believed to be influenced from different mechanisms. Indeed we show that there is a…
The tetragonal to monoclinic (t-m) phase transformation of zirconia has been the object of extensive investigations of the last twenty years, and is now recognised as being of martensitic nature. However, martensitic transformation has only…
This work reports on the first Raman detection of the tetragonal to monoclinic phase transition in PZT ceramics near morphotropic phase boundary at low temperatures. The transition is characterized by changes in the frequency of lattice…
The PZT material near the morphotropic phase boundary where a monoclinic phase was observed is studied. A theory of the tetragonal to monoclinic phase transition was developed within the Landau free energy approach. The phase transition…
The isothermal tetragonal-to-monoclinic transformation of 3Y-TZP ceramics sintered at two different temperatures (1450{\deg}C and 1550{\deg}C) and duration (2 and 5 h) is investigated at 134{\deg}C in steam. Particular attention is paid to…
Molecular dynamics (MD) is employed to investigate the plastic deformation mechanisms of single crystalline yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (YSTZ) nanopillars under uniaxial compression. Simulation results show that the nanoscale…
In this paper, we revisit the high-pressure behavior of BaZrO3 by a combination of first-principle calculations, Raman spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction under high pressure. We confirm experimentally the cubic-to-tetragonal transition at…
For most applications, zirconia (ZrO2) is doped with yttria. Doping leads to the stabilization of the tetragonal or cubic phase, and increased oxygen ion conductivity. Most previous surface studies of yttria-doped zirconia were plagued by…
Recent structural studies of ferroelectric PbZr(1-x)TixO3 (PZT) with x= 0.48, have revealed a new monoclinic phase in the vicinity of the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB), previously regarded as the the boundary separating the rhombohedral…
We investigate the possible stabilization of ferroelectricity in bulk Y2O3-doped hafnia and zirconia. We use density functional theory (DFT) with large random supercells of hafnia and zirconia and study the relative phase stability of the…
In piezoelectric ceramics the changes in the phase stabilities versus stress and temperature in the vicinity of the phase boundary play a central role. The present study was dedicated to the classical piezoelectric, lead-zirconate-titanate…
Under high pressure conditions, Zr undergoes a phase transformation from its ambient equilibrium hexagonal close packed $\alpha$ phase to hexagonal $\omega$ phase. Upon returning to ambient conditions, the material displays hysteretic…
Developing nanostructured bulk ceramics is a major challenge when conventional high-temperature sintering is employed for consolidation. In the current investigation, yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) with a composition of ZrO2 - 3 mol% Y2O3…
Sintered samples of monoclinic zirconia (alpha-ZrO2) have been irradiated at room temperature with 6.0-GeV Pb ions in the electronic slowing down regime. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and micro-Raman spectroscopy measurements showed unambiguously…
Recently a new monoclinic phase in the PbZr(1-x)TixO3 ceramic system has been reported by Noheda et al. for the composition x= 0.48. In the present work, samples with Ti contents of x= 0.47 and 0.50, which are both tetragonal below their…
We investigate by atomic force microscopy (AFM) the surface relief resulting from martensitic tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation induced by low temperature autoclave aging in ceria-stabilized zirconia. AFM appears as a very…
In order to probe the mechanism of solid-solid phase transformations, we have applied ultrafast shock wave compression (120 picosecond duration) and ultrashort (130 femtosecond) x-ray diffraction at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) to…
