Abstract
PbTiO3 powders have heen obtained by the sol-gel method using different precursors and catalysts. The whole
gelation and crystallisation process was studied by means of XAS spectroscopy at the Ti K-edge and at the Pb Lm-edge. The
XANES spectra on the Ti K-edge indicate a marked change of the local environment at 500°C. The local structure around the
Ti atoms determined by EXAFS is similar to that ohserved in the pyrochlore phase for annealing temperatures below 500°C .
At this temperature both Ti and Pb environments show the occurrence of the Pb-O-Ti bonds indicating the onset of the
transformation to the perovskite phase.
