Mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials become anomalous when the grain size and grain boundary length decrease to nanometer scale. For example, ductility and toughness increase significantly in nanometer-grained ceramics (nanocrystalline ceramics). Ductility increases due to appearance of fine-grained-superplastic deformation. Grain boundary migration and interface migration are fundamental processes of the superplastic deformation. Structural transformation of fine grains is a factor which limits the toughness in polycrystalline ceramics because the transformation relaxes internal strain. The behavior of grain boundaries and interfaces, such as diffusion bonding and Czochralski-type crystal growth at ambient temperature, can be analyzed by a time-resolved high-resolution electron microscopy (TRHREM) developed by Kizuka et al.,In the present study, grain boundary migration and successive transformation of crystal structure in nanocrystalline ZnO were investigated by TRHREM.Zinc oxide was vacuum-deposited on air-cleaved (001) surfaces of sodium chloride at 200°C. TRHREM was carried out at room temperature using a 200-kV electron microscope (JEOL, JEM2010) equipped with a high sensitive TV camera and a video tape recorder.
