An experimental study of the behavior of laser ultrasonic signals near a hole in a plate from dielectric silicon nitride ceramics under the action of external compressive stresses is carried out. A fundamental discrepancy between the results obtained and similar results obtained by us earlier for metals and a quantitative discrepancy with the predicted thermodynamic model of the formation of thermoelastic signals from stressed materials is shown. An explanation of the observed discrepancies is proposed using the model of thermal excitation of lattice defect states that we proposed earlier.

Highly densed silicon nitride ceramics with various α/β phase ratios were produced by pulse electric current sintering process. The β-phase content of Si3N4 in sintered materials varied from 20 to 100 wt% depending on the sintering condition. The microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy and investigated by image analysis. Young's modulus, hardness, fracture toughness, and strength were strongly dependent on the α/β phase ratio. The fracture toughness increased from 4.6 MPa m1/2 for 20-wt% b-phase content to 8.2 MPa m1/2 for 95-wt% β-phase content, and the fracture strength showed a maximum value of about 1.6 GPa at 60-to-80-wt% β-phase content.
