Lead titanate nanotube arrays with perfect nanotubular structure and excellent piezoelectric property were formed by hydrothermal method. The nanotubular structure proved to have strong influences on both Curie temperature and piezoelectric properties of nanotube arrays. The Curie temperature of nanotube arrays was detected to be . Perfect piezoelectric properties with a maximum displacement of and of were observed in nanotube arrays.
