Abstract
Nanosized ceramic powders (Cu/SiC, Y2O3-stabilized cubic ZrO2) were produce d by evaporation of coarsely grained powders of the respective materials in an inductively coupled thermal plasma process and rapid quenching of the v apor. The atomic short range order of these nanoparticles with an average d iameter of about 10 nm was investigated ex situ with EXAFS. The results are compared to crystalline reference materials.
