Abstract

This paper describes a new method, namely modified Pechini for one, for the preparation of nano-sized ferroelectric Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O3 (PZT (53/47)) from low cost precursors. With this method, PZT (53/47) was prepared by microwave-assisted dissolving a pre-calcinated mixture of component oxides in dilute HNO3 for a short time and precipitating in NH4OH solution (pH = 9–10). On the other hand, the ferroelectric thin films PZT (53/47) on Al substrates were also prepared. The films and the ceramic powders of PZT (53/47) were obtained with high quality in terms of structure and microstructure. The ferroelectric properties of thin films have also been investigated.
