“…Many studies have reported that zirconium dioxide (ZrO 2 ) has excellent properties, such as high temperature, corrosion, and oxidation resistance, thermal and chemical stability, which ensures it is widely used in the production of artificial teeth, high temperature materials, electronics and bio ceramics [20][21][22]. Specifically, nanosized ZrO 2 has three types of crystal structure: monoclinic (M), tetragonal (T) and cubic Nanomaterials 2021, 11, 2162 2 of 14 (C) [23,24], in addition to being an N-type semiconductor. Moreover, nano-ZrO 2 exhibits surface and interface, quantum size, and macroscopic quantum tunneling effects [25].…”
