Mineralizer Mediated Self-Assembly of PbTiO₃ Crystals

Abstract:

PbTiO₃ crystals with different morphologies, such as flower-like and spherical shape, which was constructed by oriented nanoparticles have been obtained by a simple surfactant-free hydrothermal process assisted by K₂CO₃ as a mineralizer. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was applied to examine the purity and crystallinity of the as-prepared samples. The morphologies have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that the self-assembly structures of PbTiO₃ crystals were dependent on the addition amount of K₂CO₃ and the formation mechanism of the products was briefly discussed.
