AbstractThe role of condensed counterions in transport properties, such as electrical conductivity and viscosity, has been investigated with solutions of a flexible polyelectrolyte. Comparisons with existing theories are proposed. Viscosity is strongly affected by confinement in thin films, depending whether polyelectrolyte chains are adsorbed or not at the film surfaces. The role of counterion mobility is however difficult to assess because the measurements are not accurate enough. It is proposed that this role could be tested by electrical conductivity measurements.

The role of precursor stoichiometry and local firing environment on the microstructural development of sol-gel derived lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films was investigated. Typically, excess Pb is added to films to compensate for PbO volatilization during heat treatment. Here, it is shown that the use of stoichiometric precursors with either a PbO atmosphere powder or a PbO overcoat during the crystallization heat treatment is an attractive and viable alternative method for control of film stoichiometry. Using these approaches, we have fabricated single phase perovskite thin films with microstructures and electrical properties (Pr ∼ 36 μC/cm2 and Ec ∼ 45 kV /cm) comparable to those of films using optimized solution chemistries and excess Pb additions. The potential advantage of increasing PbO partial pressure, or activity, during firing versus excess Pb additions is discussed from the standpoint of a proposed crystallization scenario based on the kinetic competition between Pb loss and the nucleation and growth rates of the perovskite phase.
