Lead zirconate (PbZrO₃) is an inorganic ceramic compound and antiferroelectric material belonging to the perovskite family, often studied as a component in lead zirconate titanate (PZT) solid solutions for piezoelectric and ferroelectric applications. It is primarily used in research and advanced device development for electromechanical transducers, capacitors, and nonlinear optical components, valued for its distinct antiferroelectric behavior that differs from the more common ferroelectric PZT ceramics and enables unique switching and energy-storage characteristics.
