Entirely aqueous solution-gel route for the preparation of (Pb 1-xCax)TiO3 thin films

[EN] In this work, calcium-modified lead titanate (Pb1-xCa x)TiO3 (PCT) precursor solutions with different amounts of Ca2+ substituting Pb2+ (x = 0.24 and 0.50) have been prepared for the first time by an entirely aqueous solution-gel route. The use of water as a nonhazardous and inexpensive solvent...
