This paper reviews our previous work on synthesis and characterization of ferroelectric lead zircornate titanate nanofibers through electrospinning. It addresses the synthetic procedure and mechanism, process and material characterization using viscometery, thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersion spectrometery, Auger electron spectrometery, scanning probe microscopy, x-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infra-red spectrometery, Raman micro-spectrometery and piezo-response imaging techniques. It also looks into numerical analysis on the electrostatic field distribution during the electrospinning and piezo-response imaging processes.
