The objective of this work is to synthesize lead-free piezoelectric thin films by the Sol-Gel method:bismuth sodium titanate (Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 or BNT).BNT films were annealed with the rapid thermal process (RTP).The film treated at 700°C is dense and well crystallized in the perovskite phase. The first results of electricalcharacterizations showed promising dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric performance. At 12 kHz, thedielectric constant and losses are 430 and 0.07, respectively. Ferroelectric hysteresis measurements indicated aremanent polarization of 10μC/cm2, associated with a coercive field of 70 kV/cm. The piezoelectric properties ofBNT films were studied with a laser Doppler interferometer: a piezoelectric coefficient (d33effmax) of 42 pm/V was measured.

AbstractEnvironmentally acceptable lead-free ferroelectric KNbO3 (KN) or NaNbO3 (NN) and K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) thin films were prepared using a modified sol-gel method by mixing potassium acetate or sodium acetate or both with the Nb-tartrate complex, deposited on the Pt/Al2O3 and Pt/SiO2/Si substrates by a spin-coating method and sintered at 650°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicated that the NN and KNN films on the Pt/SiO2/Si substrate possessed a single perovskite phase, while NN and KNN films on the Pt/Al2O3 substrate contained a small amount of secondary pyrochlore phase, as did KN films on both substrates. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and atomic force microscopic (AFM) analyses confirmed that roughness R q of the thin KNN/Pt/SiO2/Si film (≈ 7.4 nm) was significantly lower than that of the KNN/Pt/Al2O3 film (≈ 15 nm). The heterogeneous microstructure composed of small spherical and larger needle-like or cuboidal particles were observed in the KN and NN films on both substrates. The homogeneous microstructure of the KNN thin film on the Pt/SiO2/Si substrate was smoother and contained finer spherical particles (≈ 50 nm) than on Pt/Al2O3 substrates (≈ 100 nm). The effect of different substrates on the surface morphology of thin films was confirmed.

AbstractHighly (100)-textured thin film of metallic LaNiO3 (LNO) was grown on the Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by rf magnetron sputtering at ˜300°C, which was used as a bottom electrode to prepare highly (100)-textured ferroelectric films. Examples on the deposition of PbTiO3, (Pbl−xLax)TiO3, Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O3, Pb[(Mg1/3Nb2/3)1−xTix]O3, and (Ba1−xSrx)TiO3 thin films by rf magnetron sputtering or sol-gel method are shown. A reduction of temperature for perovskite phase formation can be achieved, especially for those difficult to crystallize. The surface roughness of the ferroelectric films is also improved as compared to that of films deposited on conventional Pt electrode. Although the electrical properties of the ferroelectric films are affected by the out-diffusion of LNO when a higher temperature was used in the preparation of the films, under an appropriate processing condition, the highly (100)-textured films can have satisfactory electrical characteristics for application. Moreover, the polarization-fatigue property can be also improved by the use of LNO electrode.

Abstract In this work, the ferroelectric, pyroelectric and dielectric properties of La-doped bismuth sodium titanate ceramics (BNLT) using amounts from 0 to 6.7 at.% La were studied. The precursor powders used to make dense BNLT ceramics were obtained by the sol-gel method using the acetic acid route. All samples were calcined at 700°C for 1hr and sintered at 1150°C for 30 min in an encapsulated crucible to avoid Na and Bi volatilization, obtaining relative densities equal or higher than 94%. The obtained X-ray diffraction patterns typical of the perovskite structure, confirm the incorporation of lanthanum into the lattice, evolving from rhombohedral phase to a mixture of rhombohedral and cubic structure for higher concentrations. Thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) results indicate that the crystallization of precursors powders of BNT takes place between 500 and 700°C. Additionally, the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) micrographs reveal a decrement of grain size from 4.5 to 0.5 μm with increasing La content. The ferroelectric hysteresis curves show that the best ferroelectric properties were obtained for BNT 1.3% La, where the obtained values of remnant polarization and coercive field were Pr=29 μC/cm2 and Ec=39 kV/cm respectively. Also, at this concentration, the pyroelectric response shows the higher value, 4 times the pyroelectric signal of the pure BNT.
