Abstract

Synthesis of Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 (PZT) coatings onto glass microspheres was demonstrated using solgel techniques. Characterization of the coatings was performed using XRD and SEM to demonstrate that piezoelectric PZT coating are possible. This study represents an initial feasibility study into the manufacture of so-called “smart” material fabrication utilizing different geometries.
