Crystal growth behavior and phase stability of rare earth oxides (4 mol.% GdO1.5-4 mol.% SmO1.5) doped zirconia nanopowders

Nanocrystalline powders of 4 mol.% GdO1.5-4 mol.% SmO1.5 doped ZrO2 (4Gd4SmSZ) has been synthesized by co-precipitation process. Their phase transformation and crystalline growth behavior was investigated by Thermo gravimetric-Differential Thermal Analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Raman sp...
