Using AC impedance spectroscopy as a means of in situ thermometry, temperature runaway over 1,500°C within a few seconds was observed for the first time in dense 92 mol% ZrO 2 –8 mol% Y 2 O 3 (8 YSZ ) ceramics heated under a constant voltage. Such runaway is especially pronounced when starting from a low background temperature in samples of a small surface‐to‐volume ratio, and is expected to be commonplace during flash sintering of porous ceramic cubes or cylinders. The method of AC impedance‐based thermometry is applicable to other ceramics with a well‐defined conduction mechanism at high temperature.
