Abstract:Films of (1−x)Pb(Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 -xPb(Zr 0.4 Ti 0.6 ) O 3 (x = 0.6, 40PZN-60PZT) were deposited on Pt/TiO 2 / SiO 2 /Si substrate through spin coating. Using a combination of homogeneous precursor solution preparation and two-step pyrolysis process, we were able to obtain the 40PZN-60PZT thin films of perovskite phase virtually without pyrochlore phase precipitation after annealing above 650 • C. But since annealing done at the high temperatures for extended time can cause diffusion of Pt, TiO 2 and Si, and… Show more
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.
