Crystallographic texturing of polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics offers a means of achieving significant enhancements in the piezoelectric response. Templated grain growth (TGG) enables the fabrication of textured ceramics with single crystal-like properties, as well as single crystals. In TGG, nucleation and growth of the desired crystal on aligned single crystal template particles results in an increased fraction of oriented material with heating. To facilitate alignment during forming, template particles must be anisometric in shape. To serve as the preferred sites for epitaxy and subsequent oriented growth of the matrix, the template particles need to be single crystal and chemically stable up to the growth temperature. Besides templating the growth process, the template particles may also serve as seed sites for phase formation of a reactive matrix. This process, referred to as Reactive TGG (RTGG), has been used to obtain highly oriented Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3, Sr0.53Ba0.47Nb2O6, and (N...read more

Correction of intensities for preferred orientation in powder diffractometry: application of the March model
TL;DR: In this paper, the pole-density profile of axially symmetric flat-plate or capillary specimens, composed of effectively rod- or disk-shaped crystallites, can be corrected for preferred orientation with a single pole density profile, and a convenient procedure is to approximate this profile with a function whose variable parameters are fit during least squares structure refinement.
