ABSTRACTNeodymium-modified Bi4Ti3O12(BNdT) thin films have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), aiming to realize enhanced ferroelectric properties by a low temperature treatment. When deposited at 500°C, the film shows P-E hysteresis having twice remanent polarization 2Pr of 78.8 μC/cm-2, coercive force Ec of about 250 kV/cm, and leakage current of less than 10-7 A/cm2 from -50 to +50 kV/cm. Good fatigue properties of BNdT films deposited at 5 Hz have been obtained up to 1010 cycles of 500 kHz bipolar square pulses, with less than 25% decrease of +Pr and -Pr.

AbstractPreferentially (151)-oriented Sr2(Ta1-x, Nbx)2O7 (STN) thin films on Pt have been prepared at temperatures as low as 550 and 600°C, in O2 and N2O atmospheres, respectively, by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The temperatures are significantly lower than those prepared by sol-gel methods, where 950°C was reported. These are the lowest growth temperatures of crystalline STN thin films. Composition ratio (x) in the target material was determined to be around 0.3 from measurement of the Curie temperature and ferroelectric properties. Active oxygen generated by laser irradiation in ambient O2 or N2O atmosphere is found to be very effective for chemical reaction, and decreases the growth temperature of crystalline STN films. It is also confirmed by surface AFM and cross-sectional SEM observations that the film has a columnar-shaped structure with grain size ranging from 50 to 100 nm. Remanent polarization (Pr) and coercive field (Ec) are 0.4μ C/cm2 and 30 kV/cm, respectively. Finally, we expect the low temperature STN film prepared by PLD to be a promising ferroelectric for the application in ferroelectric memory FETs.

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.

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.
