abstract = {Cation doping of Y2O3 is an established approach for
tailoring densification and grain growth during sintering.
However, the segregation of doped cations to the grain
boundary and their impact on processing are still not
completely understood. Segregation can be driven by
electrostatic effects due to charge mismatch with the host
lattice or elastic effects induced by ion size mismatch.
While segregation is caused by thermodynamics, it impacts
diffusion and the kinetics of grain boundaries during
densification and microstructure evolution. In this study,
we utilize two isovalent dopants (La3+ and Gd3+), that is we
focus on the elastic component of segregation. We
investigate the densification as well as the grain growth
kinetics of both doped and undoped Y2O3 during
field-assisted sintering/spark plasma sintering (FAST/SPS).
While Gd3+ is showing no significant effect on
densification, La3+ resulted in a strongly reduced sintering
activity. Furthermore, the analysis of the grain growth
behavior during sintering and on predensified samples
revealed a decrease in the grain growth coefficient, with
La3+ having the strongest impact. The structure and
chemistry at the grain boundary were observed by
aberration-corrected TEM. While no structural change was
caused by doping, the chemical analysis showed a strong
segregation of La3+ to the grain boundary, which could not
be observed for Gd3+. The results indicate that segregated
La3+ causes a drastic decrease in grain boundary migration
rates through solute drag as well as much slower sintering
kinetics, likely caused by a decrease in the grain boundary
self-diffusion due to segregation. This study further
underlines the importance of the elastic contribution to
cation segregation and establishes a clear relationship to
grain growth and sintering kinetics, which are both
decreased by segregation.},
