AbstractA two-step pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process, including PLD at a substrate temperature lower than 150°C and rapid-thermal-annealing (RTA) at around 550°C (30 s), has been successfully applied for growing (Pb0.97La0.03)(Zr0.66Ti0.034)0.9875O3, PLZT, thin films. Interdiffusion between layers is pronouncedly suppressed due to the presence of the SrRuO3 layer, which markedly improves the electrical properties of PLZT films. The PLZT films thus obtained exhibit large remanent polarization P,=19 µC/cm2 (with coercive force Ec=78 kV/cm), low leakage current density J11≤8 × 1O−6 A/cm2 (up to 400 kV/cm) and fatigue free characteristics.

Dy-doped Bi4Ti3O12 thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique, and the structures and electrical properties of the films were investigated. XRD results indicated that all of Bi4-xDyxTi3O12 films consisted of single phase of a bismuth-layered structure with well-developed rod-like grains. The remanent polarization ( Pr ) and coercive field (Ec) of the Bi4-xDyxTi3O12 Film with x=0.75 were 25μC/cm2 and 85KV/cm , respectively.

Pure BiFeO3(BFO) and Bi0.9Nd0.1Fe0.925Mn0.075O3(BNFM) thin films were deposited on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that all the films were single perovskite structure and a phase transition appeared in Nd–Mn codoped BiFeO3 thin films. Electrical measurements indicated that the ferroelectric properties of BFO thin films were significantly improved by Nd and Mn codoping. BNFM films exhibit a low leakage current and a good P-E hysteresis loop. The remanent polarization (Pr) value of 74μC/cm2has been obtained in BNFM films, while the coercive field (Ec) is 184kV/cm.

Ferroelectric characteristics of the 400 nm-thick SrxBi2.4Ta2O9(0.7≤x≤1.3) thin films processed by metalorganic decomposition were investigated, and electrical properties of the Pt/Sr0.85Bi2.4Ta2O9/TiO2/Si structure prepared using TiO2 buffer layer were characterized. The Sr-deficient SrxBi2.4Ta2O9 films exhibited well-developed ferroelectric hysteresis curves compared to those of the Sr-excess films. The Sr0.85Bi2.4Ta2O9 film exhibited optimum ferroelectric properties, such as high remanent polarization and low leakage current density, among SrxBi2.4Ta2O9 films. A memory window of the Pt/SrxBi2.4Ta2O9/TiO2/Si structure was dependent upon the coercive field of the SrxBi2.4Ta2O9 film, and the Pt/SrxBi2.4Ta2O9/TiO2/Si exhibited a maximum memory window of 1.3 V at the sweeping voltage of ±5 V.

Yb-doped bismuth titanate and random oriented Bi4-xYbxTi3O12 (BYbT) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate with pulsed laser deposition method. The structures and ferroelectric properties of the BYbT films were investigated. Yb doping resulted in a marked improvement in remanent polarization (Pr) and coercive field (Ec). At an applied electric field of 120kV/cm, the Pr and (Ec) of the BYbT (x=0.8) films annealed at 650°C were 20 μC/cm2 and 85 KV/cm, respectively.

We have developed a uniform and dense epitaxial thin film of 0.94( Bi 0.5 Na 0.5) TiO 3 - 0.004 × ( Bi 0.5 K 0.5) TiO 3 - 0.02 BaTiO 3 on a SrRuO 3 coated SrTiO 3 substrate by pulsed laser deposition method. The remnant polarization, coercive field and dielectric constant of the film with thickness of 315 nm, were measured to be 16.6 μC ⋅ cm−2, 147.5 kV ⋅ cm-1 and 640 (at 1 kHz), respectively. The film exhibited a high breakdown voltage and low leakage current of 1.1 × 10-5 A ⋅ cm-2 at 310 kV ⋅ cm-1. This ( Bi 0.5 Na 0.5) TiO 3-based thin film with a target composition in the rhombohedral side of the morphotropic phase boundary can be considered a potential candidate for relatively high power applications.

Ferroelectric SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) thin films on Pt/ZrO2/SiO2/Si were successfully prepared by using an alkanolamine-modified chemical solution deposition method. It was observed that alkanolamine provided stability to the SBT solution by retarding the hydrolysis and condensation rates. The crystallinity and the microstructure of the SBT thin films improved with increasing annealing temperature and were strongly correlated with the ferroelectric properties of the SBT thin films. The films annealed at 800 °C exhibited low leakage current density, low voltage saturation, high remanent polarization, and good fatigue characteristics at least up to 1010 switching cycles, indicating favorable behavior for memory applications.

AbstractPZT thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition on unheated Ptcoated Si substrates. As deposited, the films were amorphous. Films crystallized at 550 - 600 °C to produce predominantly crystalline ferroelectric PZT. Crystallization of the amorphous material was accompanied by a linear shrinkage of ∼2 %, as manifested in development of cracks in the film. Spacing, width and morphology of larger cracks followed a regular progression with decreasing film thickness. For film thicknesses less than 500 runm, much of the shrinkage was taken up by small, closely-spaced cracks of local extent. Implications for measurement of PZT thin film ferroelectric properties and processing are discussed.
