Abstract: Quantum paraelectric La1/2Na1/2TiO3nanocrystals have successfully been prepared by using improved sol-gel method in which absolute alcohol and stearic acid were used as the solvent. X-ray diffraction results show that the as-prepared sample is a pure La1/2Na1/2TiO3with an acubic perovskite-type structure. The mean crystallite sizes were controlled by varying annealing temperatures. FTIR and Raman measurements reveal nano-size effects on the vibration spectroscopic properties of the nanocrystalline La1/2Na1/2TiO3.
