Abstract

A Lead lanthanum zirconium titanate (PLZT) spec imen was studiedwith the wavelength dispersive electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) todetermine the composition and the extent of microheterogeneity of thematerial. Quantitative analysis of the specimen showed that thecomposition was close to the intended composition. Data obtained frommicroheterogeneity testing demonstrated that there is little microheterogeneity in the specimen.
