Ml. Calzada et al., PROCESSING PARAMETERS AFFECTING THE PROPERTIES OF SOL-GEL-DERIVED MODIFIED LEAD TITANATE THIN-FILMS, Materials research bulletin, 31(4), 1996, pp. 413-421
Calcium modified lead titanate thin films have been prepared by spin-c
oating of aquo-diol solutions on platinized silicon substrates. The in
fluence of the chemical processing parameters and of the heating rates
on the crystallization of the films is studied. Different ferroelectr
ic properties are measured in films prepared under different condition
s, These differences are related to the crystalline phases and structu
ral characteristics developed in the films during their preparation.
