dc.description.abstractThe impact of the interfacial contribution on overall properties increases with decreasing grain size of polycrystalline materials. It is well known that distribution and size of cluster defects are rather different in bulk than grain boundaries. In light of "bottom-up" approaches, a study at the atomic level determining the distribution of crystallographic defects could clarify their contribution to the macroscopic properties, and then differentiate materials for outstanding or precise applications. In this work, Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy (PAS) is used to characterize the distribution of defects within 8 mol% Y₂O₃-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ) structures prepared by sintering through three different thermal treatments, i.e. a conventional thermal cycle in air and N₂/H₂ atmosphere, and a fast firing cycle in air, which lead to average grain sizes < 260 nm.en
