Optimizing the processing conditions of sodium potassium niobate thin films prepared by sol-gel spin coating technique

In the present study, potassium sodium niobate (KNN) thin films were synthesized by means of sol-gel spin coating method. Along with the synthesis, the effects of annealing temperature and various number of coating layers on both the structural and electrical properties were looked into. The resul...
