Abstract

We have synthesized Pb(Zr0.54Ti0.48)O3 fibers with diameter ranging from 500 nm to several microns using electrospinning and metallo-organics decomposition (MOD) techniques. By a refinement of our electrospinning technique, i.e. by increasing the viscosity of the precursor solution, and by adding a filter to the tip of the syringe, the diameter of synthesized PZT fibers has been reduced to the neighborhood of a hundred nanometers. The complex thermal decomposition was characterized using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that alcohol evaporated during electrospinning and that the organic groups had pyrolized before the intermediate pyrochlore phase was formed. There is a good correspondence between XRD and FTIR spectra. It was also found that a thin film of platinum coated on silicon substrate surface not only seems to have catalyzed the phase transformation to PZT but also favored the formation of 110 texture in the synthesized PZT fibers.
