title = "Characterisation of nanocrystalline PZT synthesised via a hydrothermal method",
abstract = "This paper describes the progress made toward characterising lead zirconate titanate (PZT) synthesised via a novel hydrothermal method [1,2]. Low temperatures (≤ 200°C) and high mineraliser (potassium hydroxide) concentrations were used to produce single-phase, perovskite PZT in a bomb-type reactor. Full phase purity was attained after just 30 minutes of processing at 160°C. The particles had a wide size distribution, from nanoscale agglomerates with irregular morphology, up to micronsized cubes. It is believed that the differences in morphology can be attributed to two distinct formation stages.",
