A simple and rapid process for synthesizing lead zirconate titanate, Pb ( Zr0.52 Ti0.48 ) O3 (PZT), ferroelectric powders was developed. This process, combining the sol-gel and combustion process, offers several advantages over conventional methods, including rapid solution synthesis, use of commercially available materials, lower synthesis temperature and ease of obtaining ultrafine powaders. The precursor solution for synthesizing powders was prepared from lead nitrate, zirconium nitrate, titanium oxynitrate , citric acid and deionized water. The precursor was investigated by DSC- TG, and the PZT powders were investigated by powder-XRD, IR spectra and TEM. XRD analysis shows that the powders possess a single-phase perovskite- type structure, no pyrochlore phase exists, and TEM image shows that the grain size of the powders is about 40nm.
