30. In this paper, NBT crystal structure is considered as a pseudo-cubic cell. Thus, we index the XRD patterns using the corresponding nomenclature. The International Centre for Diffraction Data® provides the Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS) files related to both the NBT cubic structure and to the real NBT rhombohedral structure, which are referenced, respectively, as follows: (ref: 01-389-3109) and (ref: 01-070-9850).

34. (111)Pt =2.265 Å lead to a 2θ angle of 38.04°. Such artifact might be observed when using an old X-ray tube. The Cu anti-cathode gets covered by tungsten (W). Tungsten comes from the filament employed to extract the electrons that bombard the Cu anti-cathode.
