Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) (Zr:Ti= 52: 48) thin films were prepared on MgO(100) substrates by dipping-py-rolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials. Thin films were fabricated by spin coating technique and the precursor films were prefired at 20$0^{\circ}C$ in air for 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 24 h followed by final heat treatment at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. Film prefired for 24 h lost orientational properties and pole figure analysis showed the lost of the epitaxial relationship between the films and substrate while highly a/c-axis oriented thin films were obtained for the samples prefired for 1, 2, and 3h.

Epitaxially grown Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$thin films were prepared on LaAlO$_3$substrates by the dipping pyrolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials Homogeneous Pb-Zr-Ti solutions with toluene were spin-coated onto the substrates and pyrolyzed at 50$0^{\circ}C$ Highly oriented Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$films confirmed by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans were obtained by heat-treated at 75$0^{\circ}C$ in air The X-ray pole-figure analysis and reciprocal-space mapping of the resulting 0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ films showed that the thin films comprising the c-axis oriented tetragonal phase have an epitaxial relationship with the LaAlO$_3$substrates.

Bismuth titanate thin films were prepared on {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }}(100) and Si(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis pro-cess using metal naphthenates as starting materials. crystallinity and in-phase alignment of the films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and $\beta$ scans (pole-figures) respectively. Highly c-axis-oriented {{{{ { { {Bi }_{4 }Ti }_{3 }O }_{12 } }} thin films with smooth surfaces were obtained after heat treatment at 75$0^{\circ}C$ on {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }}(100) sub-strate while the films grown of Si(100) exhibited polycrstalline characteristics. C-axis oriented film show-ed an epitaxial relationship with the {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }} substrate.

Epitaxially grown $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films on the MgO(100) substrates was prepared by dipping-pyrolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials. The films annealed at various temperatures were charactrized by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and pole-figure analysis ($\beta$ scanning). Highly c-axia oriented Bi4Ti3O12 films were crystallized by heat-treatment at 700$^{\circ}$ and 75$0^{\circ}C$ from precursor films pyrolyzed at 50$0^{\circ}C$. The X-ray pole-figure analysis indicated that the $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have an epitaxial relationship with the MgO(100) substrates.

LaNiO3 thin films were fabricated on various substrates by spin-coating technique using metal naphthenates as starting materials. Highly-oriented LaNiO3 films with smooth and crack-free surfaces were grown on SrTiO3 (100) and LaAlO3(100) substrates, while films on MgO(100) and Si(100) substrates showed random orientation. In this study, we concluded that lattice-mismatches between LaNiO3 films and substrates used affect film's properties.

$Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$ (Pb:Zr:Ti=1:0.52:0.48) thin films were prepared on single crystal MgO(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis process using a solution of constituent metal naphthenates as starting materials. The solution was spin-coated onto substrate and the precursor films were pyrolyzed at $200^{\circ}C$ in air or at $200^{\circ}C$ in argon for 1, 2, 5 and 24h, followed by final heat treatment at $750^{\circ}C$. For all the films, highly (h00)/(00l)-oriented Pb$Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$ thin films with smooth surfaces and crack-free were obtained, whereas thin film pyrolyzed in air for 24 h exhibited polycrystalline character. According to the pole-figure analysis, epitaxy of the product films was found to depend on pyrolysis atmosphere.

Epitaxial Pb(Zr, Ti)O3(PZT) thin films were prepared on MgO(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis (DP) process using metal naphthenates as starting materials, and effects of pyrolysis and final heat-treatment conditions on the film's orientation were investigated. Solid-state epitaxial growth of PZT proceeds at lower temperature around 650℃ from the precursor pyrolyzed at 350 and 500℃. The in-plane alignment of the PZT films depends not only on the final heat-treatment temperature but on the pyrolysis conditions; the films, pyrolyzed at a higher temperature for a short time, i.e., at 500℃ for 10 min, exhibited stronger orientation after the same final heat treatment at 650°∼750℃. The PZT films with the strongest orientation were prepared by pyrolysis under the above conditions followed by final heat treatment at 750℃.
