Abstract

We have studied the effect of bismuth oxide additions (2 wt %) on the electrical properties of thick lead zirconate titanate films. The results demonstrate that the addition of bismuth oxide to the starting mixture, followed by grinding in a high-energy vibratory mill, enables the sintering temperature to be lowered to 820–850°C.
