Abstract

The lead cobalt titanate (PCT) nanoparticles were prepared by sol–gel method and further microwave heated at 1023 K for 3/4 h. The X-ray diffraction pattern revealed the formation of PCT phases. The average crystallite-size was acquired to be 26.3 nm. The surface morphology of specimen was analyzed using transmission electron microscope. The ferroelectric property was elucidated by means of polarization versus electric field loop as a function of temperature.
