Abstract
A semi-wet procedure for the synthesis of single-phase Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3 powders at 600-degrees-C is described. The ultrafine powders so obtain ed do not exhibit tetragonal/rhombohedral distortions until they are s intered at higher temperatures. The morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) for these powders, which are chemically homogeneous, lies.between x = 0.52 and 0.53. For x = 0.525, the rhombohedral and tetragonal phases c oexist.
