Abstract

The preparation and characterization of thick PLZT films for spatial phase modulator applications are reported. Films were fabricated on LSCO/LAO substrates by a sol-gel technique using multiple heat-treatment parameters. The crystal quality of PLZT 9/65/35 films was investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.
