Article: New ceramics study findings reported from D. Alonsosanjose and co-authors.

According to recent research from Madrid, Spain, "Ferroelectric (Na1/2Bi1/2)TiO3-BaTiO3 (BNT-BT) single perovskite thin films have been prepared, for the first time, by chemical solution deposition onto Pt/TiO2/SiO2/(100) Si substrates. A solution process has been developed for the preparation of precursor solutions."

"The handling of all the chemical reagents, refluxes, and distillations was carried out in air. In addition, the resulting solutions are stable in air, presenting a low gelation and trend to the formation of precipitate. Solutions containing a 10 mol% of Na excess, and a 10 mol% excess of Na+10 mol% excess of Bi, were prepared. These solutions were ...
