Fast low-temperature densification of translucent bulk nanograin Gd2Zr2O7 ceramics with average grain size below 10 nm

Configuration-entropy effects on BiFeO3–BaTiO3 relaxor ferroelectric ceramics for high-density energy storage

“…The morphologies of the nanoclusters are different from nanograins, which are typically identified by ring patterns. 58 The high-resolution TEM image of the nanoclusters with stripes in Fig. 8c from the dark-contrast region “c” in Fig.…”

Gadolinium doped zinc ferrite nanoarchitecture reinforced with a carbonaceous matrix: a novel hybrid material for next-generation flexible capacitors

“…The β (FWHM) for ZFO and GZFO nanomaterials was computed by analyzing the most intense peak, which was found to be 0.64 and 0.75, respectively. Based on peak position and associated broadening, the grain size was also computed using the Scherrer relation 20–22 The grain size of the ZFO nanomaterial dropped from 13.6 nm to 11.6 nm after Gd doping. The surface area of ZFO and GZFO nanomaterials was determined using eqn (1) and the findings are shown in Table 1.…”

An Improving Densification in Spark Plasma Sintering Ultrafine-grained Y2O3 Transparent Ceramic by Particle Fracture and Rearrangement

“…It is worth noting that when the sintering temperature is higher than 1300 °C, the density begins to decrease slightly. This phenomenon that the density decreases with the grain growth is common in the pressure-assisted sintering process [23,24]. The process of grain growth easily induces pore growth and non-uniform grains.…”
