Popis: | The shrinkage rates of small prismatic dislocation loops introduced by high-temperature plastic deformation in 9·4 and 18 mol% Y2O3-stabilized cubic ZrO2 single crystals have been determined via sequential observation of thin transmission electron microscopy foils annealed ex situ between 1100 and 1300°C. The shrinkage rates of individual loops were used to determine the diffusivity of the rate-controlling species, assumed to be Zr point defects (the Zr diffusivity is known to be less than the 0 diffusivity in this superionic conductor). Both vacancy and interstitial loops were present and exhibited approximately the same shrinkage rates. The Zr diffusivities in the 18 mol% Y2O3 alloy were approximately 15 times slower than those in the 9·4 mol% Y2O3 alloy. However, the activation energies for the two alloy concentrations, 5·3 ± 0·1 eV, were essentially identical. Traditional point-defect calculations suggest that cation transport involves a charged-vacancy cluster (V‥ O V″″Zx)″, with an apparent... |
