Zirconate Titanate

Ferroelectric PZT thin films were deposited on Pt and SrRuO3 substrates in a cold-wall reactor, using the Pb(C2H5)4/Zr(OBu)4/Ti(OPri)4/O2 reaction system. In comparison with Pt substrate, the growth rate of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin film was higher on SrRuO3. Lead content of the thin film deposited on either substrate at low temperatures (723–863 K) was much more temperature dependent than the other two metal contents. The strong temperature dependence originated from the high activation energy in the initial decomposition of Pb(C2H5)4 vapor, which was 54 kcal/mol. The surface reaction constant of lead precursor had much lower temperature dependence. The activation energy of surface reaction for PbO, estimated from deposition in a mini-chamber, was 6 kcal/mol on Pt and 9 kcal/mol on the SrRuO3 substrate. Therefore, the incorporation path of component oxide PbO, whose apparent activation energy was 31 kcal/mol on Pt and 29 kcal/mol on SrRuO3, essentially involved considerable gas-phase reaction. The PZT (50/50) thin film on SrRuO3 bottom electrode possessed a lower coercive field and a smaller remnant polarization than that on Pt. The PZT capacitor on SrRuO3 was also less vulnerable to polarization fatigue.

Ion Substitution

ABSTRACTRare-earth-substituted tetragonal lead zirconate titanate thin films were synthesized for improving the ferroelectric property of conventional lead zirconate titanate. Thin films of Pb1.00REx (Zr0.40Ti0.60)1-(3x /4)O3 (x = 0.02, RE = Y, Dy, Er and Yb) were deposited on (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2/(100)Si substrates by a chemical solution deposition (CSD). B-site substitution using rare-earth cations described above enhanced the crystal anisotropy, i.e., ratio of PZT lattice parameters c/a. Remanent polarization (Pr) of PZT film was enhanced by Y3+-, Dy3+- and Er3+-substitution from 20 μC/cm2 up to 26, 25 and 26 μC/cm2 respectively, while ion substitution using Yb3+ degraded the Pr value down to 16 μC/cm2. These films had similar coercive fields (Ec) of around 100 kV/cm. Improving the ferroelectric property of PZT film by rare-earth-substitution would be ascribed to the enhancement of the crystal anisotropy. We concluded that ion substitution using some rare-earth cations, such as Y3+, Dy3+ or Er3+, is one of promising technique for improving the ferroelectric property of PZT film.
