The tensile mechanical behavior of tetragonal zirconia micro/nano-fibers and beams was studied with push-to-pull (PTP) devices equipped in an in situ nanoindenter. The small-volume ceramics generally experienced linear elastic deformation before fracture. Polycrystalline and oligocrystalline micro/n...
