The ceramics with the Gd content lower than 8 tool% exhibit pure tetragonal phase as well as high tetragonal phase stability. However, the high Gd containing ceramics consist of t-Zr02, m-Zr02 and monoclinic GdTa04 and show complicated phase evolution behaviors. The fractions of monoclinic Zr02 and GdTa04 increase with increasing Gd content, indicating that the excessive substitution of Gd for Y results in a reduction in the tetragonal phase stability. In addition, the lower Gd containing ceramics show an almost invariable tetragonality, while the higher Gd containing ceramics reveal a composition-dependent tetragonality. Accordingly, an association of the tetragonal phase stability and tetragonality with the Gd concentration is established, which provides us a clue to understand the phase stability of these ceramics.展开更多
