Lead-free Bi0.5K0.5TiO3 (BKT) ferroelectric films were synthesized on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates via the chemical solution deposition. The influence of the excess potassium on the microstructures and the ferroelectric properties of the films was investigated in detail. The results showed that the BKT films have reached the well-crystallized state in the single-phase perovskite structure with 20 mol.% excess amount of potassium. For this film, the ferroelectric properties of the films were significantly enhanced. The remnant polarization (Pr) and maximum polarization (Pm) reached the highest values of 9.4 μC/cm2 and 32.2 μC/cm2, respectively, under the electric field of 400 kV/cm.

Na0.5K0.5NbO3 (KNN) thin films were fabricated on (100) oriented SrTiO3 substrates by spin coating a stable environmentally friendly aqueous KNN precursor. Homogeneous films with an average grain size down to 60 nm were observed after heat treatment at 900 °C. The high degree of texture was confirmed by XRD. The intensity of the KNN (100) reflection for films on (100) oriented substrates increased with increasing sintering temperature up to 900 °C. The ferroelastic and piezoelectric properties of the film was confirmed by PFM. Local piezoelectric properties of selected films will be discussed in relation to the processing conditions, microstructure and orientation of the substrate.

Lead-free ferroelectric (Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3(BNT) thin films were prepared by chemical solution deposition. BNT and Mn-doped BNT precursor thin films crystallized in the perovskite single phase at 700 °C on Pt/TiOx/SiO2/Si substrates. The leakage current density of the perovskite BNT films, especially in the high applied field region, was reduced by doping with a small amount of Mn. Also, Mn doping markedly improved the ferroelectric properties of the films. 0.5 and 1.0 mol% Mn-doped BNT thin films exhibited well-shaped ferroelectric polarization (P) electric field (E) hysteresis loops at room temperature. Furthermore, the 1 mol% Mn-doped BNT films showed a typical field-induced strain loop, and the effectived33values were estimated to be about 60 pm/V.
