This thesis reports successful synthesis of NKN solid solution powder series with compositions around the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) hydrothermally at 200°C using a simple KOH and NaOH mixture with Nb2O5 as a precursor powder. Hydrothermal synthesis route adds the green-synthesis advantage to...
