Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) films with tetragonal (t′) phase was prepared on China Low Activation Martensitic steel (CLAMs) substrates by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying (SAPS) with ZrO2-8 wt% Y2O3 nano-powders as feedstock. This study deals with the subject of the structural modificatio...
