ABSTRACTThin films of PbTiO3 were prepared by sol-gel method on platinum-coated-Si and Al2O3 and annealed at 600°C. The annealing time of the films, deposited on Si, were 6 and 12 hours, respectively. Micro-Raman spectra show high background in the low frequency region and the bands are broader with respect to the single crystal work, which indicates the polycrystalline nature of the samples. The film annealed for 12 hours showed more pronounced peaks in the spectra when compared to the film annealed for 6 hours. Micro-Raman measurements on different spots in the film indicate that the PT film on platinum-coated silicon substrate is highly inhomogeneous. In the case of PT/Al2O3 such studies show a homogeneous film. The frequencies of most of the modes are decreased, which is associated to grains under stress. The nature of the stress is discussed. Although film stress may not be homogeneous, a stress value around 1.2 GPa is estimated from Raman data. XRD and SEM techniques were used for structural characterization.

Crystalline Ceramic

Ceramic thin films and coatings are of interest for electrical, optical, magnetic and thermal barrier applications. Critical for improved properties in thin films is the development of specific microstructures during processing. To this end, the sol-gel method is advantageous as a versatile processing route. The sol-gel process involves depositing a solution containing metalorganic or colloidal ceramic precursors onto a substrate and heating the deposited layer to form a crystalline or non-crystalline ceramic coating. This route has several advantages, including the ability to create tailored microstructures and properties, to coat large or small areas, simple or complex shapes, and to more easily prepare multicomponent ceramics. Sol-gel derived coatings are amorphous in the as-deposited state and develop their crystalline structure and microstructure during heat-treatment. We are particularly interested in studying the amorphous to crystalline transformation, because many key features of the microstructure such as grain size and grain size distribution may be linked to this transformation.

AbstructWe succeeded in the preparation of strontium-barium niobate (Sr0.3Ba0.7Nb2O6 : SBN30)that have a tetragonal tungsten bronze type structure thin films on SrTiO3 (100), STO, or La doped SrTiO3 (100), LSTO, single crystal substrates by a spin coating process. LSTO substrate can be used for electrode. A homogeneous coating solution was prepared with Sr and Ba acetates and Nb(OEt)5 as raw materials, and acetic acid and diethylene glycol monomethyl ether as solvents. The coating thin films were sintered at temperature from 700 to 1000°C for 10 min in air. It was confirmed that the thin films on STO substrate sintered above 700°C were in the epitaxial growth because the 16 diffraction spots were observed on the pole figure using (121) reflection. The <130> and <310> direction of the thin film on STO were oriented with the c-axis in parallel to the substrate surface. However, the diffraction spots of thin film on LSTO substrate sintered at 700°C were corresponds to the expected pattern for (110).
