A New Probe to Change Curie Temperature of PbTiO3 SensorsHigh temperature Raman spectra of nanocrystalline Pb(0.8)Ba(0.2)TiO3, Pb(0.8)Sr(0.2) TiO3, Pb(0.8)La(0.2)TiO3 and Pb(0.8)Ba(0.2)TiO3, have been measured, as a function of particle size. There appears respectively a distinct temperature-induced soft mode phase transition in every sample whose Curie temperature can be determined from the mean-field theory. The detailed Curie temperature shift in modified PbTi03 ceramics by Ba, Sr, La, and Zr, has also been investigated as a function of particle size. This study will favor preparations of high efficiency PbTi03 sensors with an adjustable Curie temperature.
