Mechanisms of Solid-State Reactions Underlying the Synthesisof Phase-Pure Lithium Niobate

摘要

LiNbO_3 formation in the Li_2CO_3-Nb_2O_5 system has been studied by thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry with the aim of gaining insight into the mechanisms of solid-state reactions underlying the synthesis of single-phase lithium niobate.
