TAILORING MICROSTRUCTURES WITH ELECTRIC FIELDS

Abstract

This AFOSR project investigates the field-assisted and interfacial-liquid activated materials processing. It accomplished a deep mechanistic understanding of the flash sintering and explored the effects of interfacial liquids. Recently, it led to two important new discoveries: (1) ultrafast sintering without electric fields and (2) discovery of an electrochemically driven interfacial transition in Bi2O3-doped ZnO. The later discovery enabled and motivated the proposed research as a continuation of our highly successful AFOSR-sponsored research.
