Abstract

Abstract: Perovskite oxides AB O3 ( A = Sr, Ba, B = Ti, Zr, Hf) were prepared at around room temperature using the reaction between alkaline earth hydroxides and metal oxide hydrous gels. The products of the reaction crystallized without any calcination. High-symmetry perovskite oxides, such as cubic perovskite, were obtained at lower temperatures. The Madelung energy of each perovskite oxide was calculated from the crystal structure and the lattice parameter obtained by XRD measurement. The calculated Madelung energy change in the synthesis reaction showed a linear relationship with the synthesis temperature. A rise in the synthesis temperature increased the change of the Madelung energy. The results thus confirmed that the synthesis temperature depended on the symmetry of the perovskite oxide in this study. Drawing from these results, we concluded that the synthesis temperature could be estimated by considering the crystal structure and Madelung energy change in the synthesis reaction.
