It is difficult to generate any user-defined three dimensional gradient to tailor the functional properties of a component. Problems are not only the lack of local material design tools, but also a suitable manufacturing process. The implementation of the concept of local composition control into the Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) process 3D-Printing is described, which leads to geometrical complex parts out of tailored materials. Suspensions of different functional inks containing a binder and carbon black nano-particles are dispensed into droplets through multiple jets – like inkjet printing a halftone image on a paper – but into a metal powder bed to generate layer by layer graded green parts. In this case the tailored preforms are then sintered, while the nano-particle additions from the functional ink act locally as alloying elements in the steel matrix to combine e.g. both, toughness and hardness in the part. This work concentrates on the realisation of the new process and shows first results taking the generation of carbon-graded steel parts as an example.

A 16Mb 1-transistor /1-capacitor (1T1C) FeRAM device was fabricated with lead-free Bi3.25La0.75Ti3.0O12 (BLT) capacitors. The key integration processes contain a scalable MTP (Merged Top-electrode and Plate-line) cell structure and reliable BLT ferroelectric capacitors. Ferroelectric properties of BLT films were optimized on the newly developed MTP cell structure. BLT films were coated on Pt/IrOx/Ir bottom electrode using sol-gel solutions. The composition of the optimized BLT film was about Bi3.25La0.75Ti3.0O12. The switchable polarization obtained in a 100nm-thick BLT film was about 20 µC/cm2 at the 3 V applied voltage, and the optimized BLT film showed a few fatigue losses about 10% up to 1 × 1011 cycles. The imprint properties of the BLT film were also characterized at 25°C and 90°C operating temperature after 125°C data storage. The average cell signal sensing margin between data "1" and data "0" was measured to be about 900 mV, which is a sufficiently large margin for device operation.

AbstractModified sol-gel processes have been developed for the preparation of precursor solutions of undoped, La and Ta doped PZT (25/75). These processes use different solvents (methoxyethanol, butoxyethanol) and different lead sources (lead acetate, lead oxide). Due to variations in the structure and in the composition of the solutions, significantly different thermal decomposition behaviors were found. These inevitably affected texture and microstructure of the sol-gel derived thin films, demonstrating the important role of precursor chemistry in the improvement of film properties. In the case of tantalum doped Pt/PZT/Pt ferroelectric capacitors a rectangular hysteresis loop, featuring high Pr, was obtained for one specific precursor chemistry.

The possibility to deposit purely organic and hybrid inorganic–organic materials in a way parallel to the state-of-the-art gas-phase deposition method of inorganic thin films, i.e., atomic layer deposition (ALD), is currently experiencing a strongly growing interest. Like ALD in case of the inorganics, the emerging molecular layer deposition (MLD) technique for organic constituents can be employed to fabricate high-quality thin films and coatings with thickness and composition control on the molecular scale, even on complex three-dimensional structures. Moreover, by combining the two techniques, ALD and MLD, fundamentally new types of inorganic–organic hybrid materials can be produced. In this review article, we first describe the basic concepts regarding the MLD and ALD/MLD processes, followed by a comprehensive review of the various precursors and precursor pairs so far employed in these processes. Finally, we discuss the first proof-of-concept experiments in which the newly developed MLD and ALD/MLD processes are exploited to fabricate novel multilayer and nanostructure architectures by combining different inorganic, organic and hybrid material layers into on-demand designed mixtures, superlattices and nanolaminates, and employing new innovative nanotemplates or post-deposition treatments to, e.g., selectively decompose parts of the structure. Such layer-engineered and/or nanostructured hybrid materials with exciting combinations of functional properties hold great promise for high-end technological applications.

Ferroelectric properties of SrBi2TaNbO9 (SBTN) thin films were changed by the amount of Bi content in SBTN. We proposed that the addition of excess Bi to the SBTN thin films could be accomplished by heat treating the SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN heterostructure fabricated by the radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The Bi composition was controlled by changing the thickness of the inserted Bi2O3 from 50 to 400Å in the SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN heterostructure. As the thickness of Bi2O3 films was increased from 0 to 100 Å, the grain grew faster and the ferroelectric properties improved. On the other hand, when the thickness, of Bi2O3 films was thicker than 150 Å, the ferroelectric properties deteriorated. In particular, when a 400 Å Bi2O3 layer was inserted between SBTN films, a Bi2Pt phase appeared and the Bi2O3 films remained between SBTN films, resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. A Bi2Pt phase was formed by the reaction between the platinum bottom electrode and Bi2O3 films. On the other hand, the leakage current density of SBTN thin films decreased with the increase of inserted Bi2O3 film thickness. As the thickness of inserted Bi2O3 films was increased from 0 to 50 Å, leakage current density abruptly decreased because Bi content of the SBTN thin films was increased from 8 mol% deficient to stoichiometric composition. As the thickness of inserted Bi2O3 films increased from 100 to 400 Å, leakage current density gradually decreased because the remaining Bi2O3 layer in SBTN thin films increased.
