An understanding of the reaction mechanisms of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and diethanolamine (DEA) for producing solution-derived (K, Na)NbO3 (KNN) thin films with outstanding piezoelectric properties and low leakage current is developed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier t...
