摘要

A novel and simple strategy of morphology-controlled Sr Ti O3(ST) micro-scale particle synthesis by the flux method is reported. Systematic experiments are designed to realize the tunable morphologies of the particles when the flux salt,sintering process, and the precursors are changed. The ST plates can be synthesized by plate-like Bi4Ti3O12(BIT) precursors in Na Cl flux. However, the as-synthesized Bi4Ti3O12 grains transform into reticular particles and finally into rods at higher temperature in Na Cl and KCl compounds. Besides, cubic ST particles are also prepared using different precursors as a comparative experiment. This study provides a strategy for further investigations in designing the morphology-controlled particles and efficient anisotropic materials of perovskite structure such as ferroelectric and photocatalyst.
