Texture design for microwave dielectric (Ca0.7Nd0.3)0.87TiO3 ceramics through reactive-templated grain growth

Plate-like Ca3Ti2O7 (CT) and Nd2Ti2O7 (NT) particles were synthesized in molten salts and used as reactive templates for the preparation of highly textured (Ca0.7Nd0.3)0.87TiO3 bulk ceramics (CNT) with preferred pseudocubic 〈100〉 and 〈110〉 orientations, respectively. During flux growth CT and NT par...
