Size-dependence of zirconia-based ceramics via deformation twinning
Abstract
<p>Contrary to the dislocation-driven ‘smaller-is-stronger’ size-effect in nanocrystals, the size-dependence of strength in deformation twinning, another carrier of plasticity, still lacks universal understanding. Deformation twinning enables pseudoplastic strain of >5% in a shape memory ceramic (ZrHfO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>x</sub> (YTaO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>1−x</sub>. We use diffraction methods, microstructure analysis, and in-situ nanomechanical experiments to uncover contributing factors to the competition between twinning and slip in these submicron-sized ionic crystals, revealing power-law scaling of strength with size for both mechanisms. The significant twinning size-dependence was found to follow a superimposed power-law with exponent of -1, identical to that in metals. These findings unveil the universality of the superimposed power-law size-effect for twinning in single-crystals and provide new insights on deformability of ceramics and microstructure-driven nano-plasticity.</p>
