Single-crystal BiFeO3 (BFO) microplates with dominant (012) facets were successfully synthesized by a facile one-pot hydrothermal method. The adsorption behaviour of the organic ligands may play a key role in the formation of the BFO microplates.
Tetragonal perovskite PbTiO3 nanofibers are prepared by a two‐step method comprising synthesis of pre‐perovskite (PP) PbTiO3 nanofibers by a hydrothermal method followed by annealing at 680 °C. Adjustment of the Pb/Ti molecular ratio in the hydrothermal reaction controls the size of the PP nanofibers and hence of the perovskite PbTiO3 nanofibers. Ferroelectric properties remain in fibers of diameter 13 nm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
