Description
Summary:Monoclinic ZrO2 has been milled for various times down to a crystallite size of 145 Å. Using the time‐differential perturbed‐angular‐correlation technique, it was possible to associate the resulting growing amount of disordered material with two different, very distributed and milling‐time‐dependent hyperfine interactions: one (Y) of quadrupole frequency similar to that of tetragonal zirconia after long milling, the other (X) one of a quadrupole frequency similar to that of monoclinic zirconia at shorter milling times. Upon annealing, all samples showed the recovery of the crystalline monoclinic phase at the expense of the disordered structures. In samples milled for shorter times, the (Y) interaction emerges as an ordered crystallization product, upon annealing at temperatures which depend nearly linearly on the crystallite size.
