Ceramic matrix composites (CMC) show, in comparison to monolithic ceramics, high fracture toughness and damage tolerance, which only can be achieved if both brittle components, the ceramic matrix and the ceramic fibers, interact with each other in an efficient way. When CMCs are loaded, cracks are generally initiated in the matrix. For enhanced failure tolerance, the fibers must remain intact even when the cracks in the matrix propagate toward the fiber-matrix interface. This is realized if strength and fracture toughness of the fibers are well adapted to crack resistance of the other components, such as the matrix and fiber-matrix interface. Two general adjustments of the CMC microstructure allow this behavior:
