“…NaNbO 3 does, however, form a solid solution with KNbO 3 that is ferroelectric at room temperature and has recently attracted attention as a promising component for nonvolatile memory devices, actuators, and microsensors. 11,12 Although NaNbO 3 powders are also synthesized in this study, the main focus is on hydrothermally synthesized KNbO 3 . One issue addressed is the variation in the amount of reaction products often recovered in the hydrothermal synthesis of KNbO 3 powder, as mentioned earlier.…”
