The grain-size dependent thermal conductivity of nanocrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia from 6-480K is reported. The thermal conductivity for a grain size of 10 nm is reduced to approximately half that of coarse-grained or single-crystal material at all measured temperatures. A method for determining the inter-facial resistance to thermal transport in polycrystalline materials from measurements of grain-size-dependent thermal conductivity is described and applied, The results suggest a new strategy for identifying improved thermal barrier materials by choosing materials with large inter-facial thermal resistance and reduced dimensionality or grain size, rather than by focusing on minimization of bulk thermal conductivity alone.
