Fabrication of pyrochlore-free PMN–PT thick films by electrophoretic deposition

Preparation and characterization of nanostructured ZnO thin film by electrophoretic deposition from ZnO colloidal suspensions

“…minute. This behavior is typical of a deposition process at constant voltage, as discussed in the literature [18,19]. The rate of deposition over time, according to weight, correlates inversely with the deposition current density over time.…”

Realization of device quality PMN–PT ceramics using modulated heating method

“…Stable cubic pyrochlore is formed at temperature below 600 1C [26]. Excess PbO and strong Pb atmosphere were reported to be sufficient conditions for the PMN-PT synthesis, but that leads to offstoichiometric ceramics with PbO inclusions at the grain boundaries [29,30]. The present study is aimed at synthesizing pure and stoichiometric perovskite phase PMN-PT through the removal of corundum-like phase from columbite precursor MgNb 2 O 6 and a partial covering method coupled with modulated heating for minimizing both Pb loss and pyrochlore formation during PMN-PT synthesis.…”

Electrical properties of Li doped sodium potassium niobate thick films prepared by a tape casting process

“…Piezoelectric thick films can be prepared by many techniques, such as screen printing, tape casting, composite sol-gel, electrophoretic deposition, ink-jet printing, and aerosol deposition [13][14][15][16]. Tape casting is among the most convenient and economic processes to fabricate thick films.…”
