Effect of constrained sintering on the piezoelectric properties of PZT thick films [PDF]
This thesis concerns the processing of thick lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films integrated with rigid substrates. The aim was to better understand the evolution of the microstructure, stress, and electrical properties of the films under constrained ...

Sol-gel derived lead zirconate titanate thick films and their improved pyroelectric properties [PDF]
The single-layer thickness of Pb(Zr0.3Ti0.7)O3(PZT 30/70) thin films made by the sol-gel process is often restricted by the appearance of cracks when a single layer is thicker than 100 nm.

Study of compositional change in the interfacial regions between lead strontium titanate (PST)/SiO2 and lead zirconate titanate (PZT)/SiO2 by Auger emission spectroscopy [PDF]
Auger spectroscopy was used to study the compositional change in the interfacial region between ferroelectric thin films, namely lead strontium titanate (PST) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT), and commercial available Si substrates with a 200 nm ...
