AbstractCharacterization of 700-nm-thick poly(vinylidene fluoride/trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF/TrFE)]/TiO2/Al-doped ZnO (AZO) structures on a glass substrate were investigated. In this study, the sputtered TiO2 films as insulator were used for the reduction of leakage current. The leakage current density of the fabricated Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/AZO and Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/170-nm-thick TiO2/AZO structures were approximately 8.7 and 3.9 nA/cm2 at the applied voltage of 10 V, respectively. In the polarization vs. voltage characteristics, the fabricated Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/TiO2/AZO structures showed hysteresis loops caused by ferroelectric polarization. The remnant polarization (2Pr) and coercive voltage (2Vc) measured from a saturated hysteresis loop at the frequency of 50 Hz were approximately 12 μC/cm2 and 105 V, respectively. These results suggest that the insertion of TiO2 film is available for reducing the gate leakage current without changing the ferroelectric properties.

Microfluidic Mixers

The ability to create patterns of piezo responsive material on smooth substrate is an important method to develop efficient microfluidic mixers. This paper reports the fabrication of Poly vinylidene fluoride microfilms using spin-coating on smooth glass surface. The suitable crystalline phases, surface morphology and microstructural properties of the PVDF films have been investigated. We found that films of average thickness 10[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m, had average roughness of 0.13[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m. These PVDF films are useful in microfluidic mixer applications.
