This paper reviews our recent investigations on grain growth in ceramics. Grain growth behavior has been found to be governed by the grain boundary structure: normal growth with a stationary relative grain size distribution for rough boundaries and non-normal (nonstationary) growth for faceted boundaries. Based on the concept of nonlinear migration of faceted boundaries, the mixed control model of grain growth is introduced and the principle of microstructural evolution is deduced. This principle states that various types of grain growth behavior are predicted as a result of the coupling effect between the maximum driving force for growth and the critical driving force for appreciable migration of the boundary. A wealth of experimental results supports the theoretical predictions of grain growth behavior, showing the generality of the suggested principle of microstructural evolution. Application of this principle is also demonstrated for the fabrication of single crystals as well as polycrystals with desired microstructures.

Grain boundary structure was examined in 0.1 mol% TiO2-excess BaTiO3 by high-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). Their grain boundaries were mostly faceted with {210} type habit. The faceted boundaries were characterized to be associated with an extra Ti–O2 bond with the rutile-like structure. The grain growth behavior in a small TiO2-excess BaTiO3 is discussed from the viewpoint of grain boundary structure.

Changes of the grain boundary character distribution and texture during normal grain growth have been investigated using the SAC-SEM based method and a 4 circle X-ray texture goniometer on A1 strips with columnar structure. The microstructure of the strips consists of regions with oriented (clusters) and randomly oriented grains. All changes of microstructure are outside the clusters during normal grain growth and consequently no texture change was observed.
