Grain growth and pore coarsening in dense nano-crystalline UO _2+x fuel pellets

Journal Article Yao, Tiankai ; Mo, Kun ; Yun, Di ; ... - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

Dense nano-sized UO _2+x pellets are synthesized by spark plasma sintering with controlled stoichiometries (UO _2.03 and UO _2.11) and grain sizes (~100 nm), and subsequently isothermally annealed to study their effects on grain growth kinetics and microstructure stability. The grain growth kinetics is determined and analyzed focusing on the interaction between grain boundary migration, pore growth and coalescence. Grains grow much bigger in nano-sized UO _2.11 than UO _2.03 upon thermal annealing, consistent with the fact that hyper-stoichiometric UO _2+x is beneficial for sintering due to enhanced U ion diffusion from excessive O ion interstitials.

New Mechanism for Ferroelectricity in the Perovskite Ca _2–x Mn _x Ti ₂ O ₆ Synthesized by Spark Plasma Sintering

Journal Article Li, Zongyao ; Cho, Yujin ; Li, Xiang ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

Perovskite oxides hosting ferroelectricity are particularly important materials for modern technologies. The ferroelectric transition in the well-known oxides BaTiO ₃ and PbTiO ₃ is realized by softening of a vibration mode in the cubic perovskite structure. For most perovskite oxides, octahedral-site tilting systems are developed to accommodate the bonding mismatch due to a geometric tolerance factor t = (A–O)/[√2(B–O)] < 1. In the absence of cations having lone-pair electrons, e.g., Bi ³⁺ and Pb ²⁺, all simple and complex A-site and B-site ordered perovskite oxides with a t < 1 show a variety of tilting systems, and none of themmore »« less
