Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) Nanoparticles/Nanopowder and Applications

What is Lead Zirconate Titanate?                                               Lead zirconate titanate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Pb[Zr x Ti 1-x ]O 3  (0≤x≤1). Also called  PZT , it is a ceramic perovskite material that shows a marked piezoelectric effect, meaning that the compound changes shape when an electric field is applied. Lead Zirconate Titanate is used in a number of practical applications such as ultrasonic transducers and piezoelectric resonators. Lead Zirconate Titanate is a white solid that is insoluble in all solvents.                                                                                       ...
