Lead-free Bi 0.5( Na 0.4 K 0.6)0.5 TiO 3 films have been synthesized by a chemical solution deposition method and deposited on p-Si (111) substrate by spin coating. Powder of the precursor solution heated at 650°C was studied by infrared scattering spectroscopy. The structural characteristics and crystallization of the films were examined by X-ray diffraction. The surface morphology and quality were studied using atomic force microscopy. The films exhibit good insulating properties and resistance to breakdown. The clockwise hysteresis curve is referred to as polarization type switching and the memory window is about 1.5 V.
