Abstract

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT)-based nanocomposites embedded with ZnO nanowhiskers (ZnO_w) were fabricated by solid state processing. There were no unwanted reaction phases between the PZT and ZnO_w. Compared with monolithic PZT, the mechanical properties increased significantly and the piezoelectric properties decreased slightly. Several probable mechanisms of whiskers responsible for reinforcement of the PZT/ZnO_w nanocomposites are proposed.
