Abstract

Plate-like particles of orthorhombic NaNbO₃ were obtained via a solvothermal reaction using a methanol/ethanol mixed solvent, in contrast to the formation of cubic NaNbO₃ particles from methanol alone. Control of the submicron NaNbO₃ particle morphology was achieved by simply changing the solvent, suggesting the role of ethanol in suppressing the growth in one direction.
