摘要
The evolution with temperature of the morphology of yttria-stabilized zirconia (100) stepped surfaces has been studied by AFM in a non-contact dynamic mode in air. The characteristics of the surface structure as the average step heights and terrace widths are determined as a function of the annealing temperature. Step formation begins around 0.43 T-M (1000 degreesC). Step coalescence is observed above 0.50 T-M (1200 degreesC) and leads to a stable stepped structure at 0.60 T-M (1500 degreesC). The processes responsible for the structural evolution observed on the sample surfaces are discussed and a comparison with results obtained on Al2O3 (0001) single crystal surfaces under similar experimental conditions is presented.
