AbstractFerroelectric and dielectric properties were measured for BaTiO3 thin films prepared by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition which were highly a-axis textured. No ferroelectric hysteresis was observed from the as-deposited BaTiO3 films on Pt coated MgO. Upon applying an electric field exceeding a threshold electric field, Et, ∼ 50 - 100 kV/cm, a ferroelectric hysteresis was observed. A spontaneous polarization Ps ≥ 15 μC/cm2 was measured for the textured films.

ABSTRACTPb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) films were deposited into sub-micron trench structure consisting of SiO2/TiAlN/Ti/SiO2/Si to investigate their thickness and composition conformality by pulsed-metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using liquid delivery source-supply system. Bis(dipivaloylmethanato)lead [Pb(DPM)2], tetrakis(1-methoxy-2-methyl-2-propoxy)zirconium [Zr(MMP)4] and tetrakis(1-methoxy-2-methyl-2-propoxy)titanium [Ti(MMP)4] were used as Pb, Zr and Ti source materials, respectively. In Arrhenius plot, the slopes of the straight lines for the constituents Pb, Zr and Ti in PZT film were almost the same at a lower deposition temperature (Td) region as well as a higher Td one. This means the composition change in the film against the Td can be suppressed by using Pb(DPM)2-Zr(MMP)4-Ti(MMP)4-O2 source system. From the results of Arrhenius plot, the Tds were fixed on 450 and 540°C as lower and higher temperatures, respectively. At both Tds, the sidewall-bottom step coverage (SCs-b) was approximately 70 %, while the sidewall step coverage (SCsw) reached excellent values above 90 %. It is suggested that low SCs-b value was caused by crystallization of the PZT films at the bottom of the trench because underlayer of the film at this area was not SiO2 but crystalline TiAlN. On the other hand, no significant composition fluctuation was observed along the depth direction of the sidewall. These results mean that the film deposited at 540°C had almost the same level in terms of thickness and composition conformality as that deposited at 450°C.
