Polarization-assisted surface engineering for low temperature degradation-proof in yttria-stabilized zirconia ceramics

This study demonstrates that electrical polarization inhibited low-temperature degradation (LTD) of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). Electrical polarizations, which were confirmed by the thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurements, were induced by an applied dc voltage. The indu...
