Abstract

Abstract:  Ca(Zr1-x,Hfx)O3/(Zr1-xHfx)O2 (x=0, 1/3, 0.5) eutectic film was prepared by rapid solidification process using high power laser irradiation method. The coating process was performed in an electric furnace at 1300°C. Solidified film with fine lamellar structure were obtained. When the Zr site was substituted with Hf, the lamellar spacing increased with the amount of the substitution. Separate from the solidification film prepared by laser irradiation, rapidly solidifying sample with x=0.1 composition was prepared using optical floating zone apparatus. The melt of the sample was free-fallen onto a copper dish. No film-like rapidly solidified sample was obtained. Hf ion was homogeneously solid-soluble in both phases of CaZrO3 and phase ZrO2.
