Abstract

Ag/ZnO, Ag/WO 3 and Ag/Al-oxide nanocrystalline composites were prepared by gas evaporation and successive in-situ compaction. The structures were observed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The metal oxide grains in these composites were hardly deformed during the compaction at 2.0 GPa, while the Ag grains deformed along the external shape of the neighboring metal oxide grains. The Ag grains act as an adhesive between the metal oxide grains, resulting in a decrease in void formation.
