Methods for synthesizing ceramic materials from aqueous solutions at ordinary temperature and pressure are advantageous because of the applicability to making films with wide areas and/or complicated shapes with no requirement of vacuum or high temperature, and because of lower cost. Powder of ZrO2 or LnMeO3 (Ln = La, Nd; Me = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co) perovskite was dissolved in hydrofluoric acid and a solution of fluoro-complex ions was obtained. Boric acid was added to the solution, the fluoride ions were consumed by the formation of BF4-, and then the fluoro-complex ions were hydrolyzed to ZrO2 or LnMeO3 in order to increase the amount of fluoride ions. A number of synthesized particles of ZrO2 or LnMeO3 were observed on the substrates in scanning electron microscope images.
