Si3N4 ceramics with tailored gradient in color and microstructure were prepared through a rapid and cost-effective one-step approach. The gradient microstructure was achieved by controlling the sintering temperature and sintering additive content, leading to a gradual change in the β-phase content from 84% to 11%. The Si3N4 ceramics exhibited white color on one side and showed high hardness of 19 GPa and fracture toughness of 7 MPa·m(1/2), making them potentially suitable for bio-implantation applications.
