AbstractAmorphous zirconium oxide thin films were prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering. The dielectric films were characterized by impedance spectroscopy with temperature. The effect of annealing on capacitor performance was studied. Annealing gold electroded thin films at 250°C greatly reduced the losses with little changes in crystallinity. Space charge relaxation started to appear at 190°C. The activation energy for the relaxation was 0.84 eV with a very low relaxation frequency at room temperature (0.23μHz). Electrode effects dominated at very low frequencies at all temperatures. AC conductivity followed the universality behavior for the AC charge transport showing that the films are highly disordered. No DC conductivity regime was observed indicating that DC conductivity is very low. DC conductivity of the films was of the order of 10−13 S/m, which is lesser than the comparable thickness high quality gate oxides.

Two new polyphosphazenes, poly(4-maleimidophenoxy/phenoxy)phosphazene and poly(4-phthalimidophenoxy/phenoxy)phosphazene, were prepared and used to toughen a PMR polyimide designated LaRCTMRP46. These toughened polyimides were evaluated as thin films with a 0–40 wt% range of polyphosphazene to polyimide. The structure–property relationships of these inorganic/organic polymeric matrices were studied and evaluated in terms of fracture toughness, thermo-oxidative stability, and thermal, mechanical, and tensile properties. The hybrid systems revealed an increase in fracture toughness up to 20 wt% polyphosphazene load without any substantial loss in tensile properties. With 5 wt% poly(4-phthalimidophenoxy/phenoxy)phosphazene loading, the fracture toughness of the semi-interpenetrating network was increased by 124%. When 10 wt% poly(4- maleimidophenoxy/phenoxy)phosphazene loading was used, the fracture toughness of the grafted copolymer was improved by 217%. In addition, substantial enhancement in thermo-oxidative stability was also observed.
