A promising approach to control Pb stoichiometry during crystallization of sol-gel-derived lead zirconate titanate (PZT) layers is presented. Pyrolyzed layers were encapsulated in a quartz ampoule containing PbZrO3 powder and crystallized in a lamp furnace. For moderate heating rates, the PbO ambient created by the powder resulted in a pronounced sharpening of the preferential (111) texture, while the remanent polarisation Pr increased by 50% compared to nonencapsulated samples. A significant reduction of the coercive field was seen for layers crystallized under PbO ambient, reflected in a lowering of the switching voltage by 0.5 V compared to standard hotplate crystallized films. The results highlighted the key role of Pb stoichiometry control for further lowering the switching voltage of PZT films.

Uniaxial compressive stress was applied during fatigue process of soft lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric ceramics and their fatigue resistance was improved when the stress was larger than 20MPa. Before fatigue, compressive stress had a strong depolarization effect and restricted domains switching behavior under large electric field and domain walls motion under small electric field. However, in a partially fatigued state, while domains switching behavior was still restricted by compressive stress, domain walls motion was enhanced. Removal of the applied stress after partial fatigue induced the remnant polarization restored significantly.
