摘要
A combination of spectroscopic and imaging methods was chosen to investigate extended (XRD, TEM) and local (EXAFS, HR-TEM) structure of nanosized ZrO2 and Y2O3. Phase content of the powders was determined by Rietveld analysis. We investigated phase stability of metastable polymorphs in n-oxides by in-situ high temperature and high pressure XRD. EXAFS oscillations in nano oxide powders (5 to 30 nm) are distinctly weaker compared to coarse grained samples. In a compacted and sintered sample of n-ZrO2 (80 nm) the EXAFS oscillation is nearly identical to the monoclinic coarse grained powder. High-Resolution-TEM micrographs show crystalline grains with grain sizes between 5 and 30 nm. Image contrast simulations of n-ZrO2 powder micrographs indicate at least for some particles a shell like structure with different phases.
