XANES and EXAFS study of the local order in nanocrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia

The local order around Zr and Y atoms of nanocrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) powders with different grain sizes has been investigated by x-ray absorption spectroscopies. The samples were prepared by means of mechanical alloying with or without subsequent sintering treatment and also by...
