ABSTRACTWe have characterized (Sr,Sm)Bi2Ta 2O9 (SSBT) films fabricated by the sol-gel technique on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. For ferroelectric-gate FET applications, a ferroelectric film which has a small remanent polarization and a relatively large coercive field is required. It is demonstrated that Sm doping in ferroelectric SBT films is effective to reduce the remanent polarization and enhance the coercive field. Sr0.5Sm0.2Bi2.2Ta2O9 films (150nm) crystallized at 850°C exhibits good electrical properties with a remanent polarization of 1.7 μC/cm2 and a coercive fields of 85 kV/cm. These values are suitable for ferroelectric-gate FET applications.

Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3 and Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3/Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 double-layered thin films were fabricated via sol-gel process on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. The influence of Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 buffer layer on microstructure and electrical properties of Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3 thin films were investigated in detail. Well-saturated P-E hysteresis loops can be obtained in Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3 films with Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 buffer. The remnant polarization (2Pr) of the double-layered thin films is 112 μC/cm2. The coercive field (2Ec) of double-layered films is 672 kV/cm, which is much lower than that of the Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3 thin films. The leakage current density of Bi0.94Ce0.06Fe0.97Ti0.03O3/Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 double-layered thin films is 4.12×10-5 A/cm2.

AbstractMn-doped Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 (BLT) thin films were fabricated by depositing sol-gel solutions on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si <100> substrates. The surface morphology and ferroelectric properties of Mn-doped BLT films depend upon the orientation of the films. Small amount of Mn-doping in BLT films influences the ferroelectric properties of the films, that is, it enhances the remanent polarization and reduces the coercive field. The 1% Mn-doped BLT films show enhanced remanent polarization and reduced the coercive field by about 22%. To the contrary, Mn-doping more than 1% decreases polarization gradually. Mn-doping significantly improves the fatigue resistance of BLT films. The reduced polarization in the 3.3% Mn-doped thin film recovers during switching cycles higher than 5 × 105. Under high switching field, the probability of field-assisted unpinning of domains is expected to be high and this may be the main cause for increase in polarization after 5 × 105 in the 3.3% Mn-doped BLT film.

Ca1-xSrxBi4Ti4O15 thin films were fabricated by sol-gel method on Pt(100)/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. Influence of Sr content on the microstructure and ferroelectric properties of Ca1-xSrxBi4Ti4O15 thin films were systematically studied. The results indicate that Ca0.4Sr0.6Bi4Ti4O15 thin film has better ferroelectric properties with remanent polarization (2Pr) of 29.1+C/cm2, coercive field (2Ec) of 220 kV/cm. Furthermore, the film has good fatigue resistance. The better ferroelectric properties of Ca0.4Sr0.6Bi4Ti4O15 thin film originate from the relatively high concentration of a-axis oriented grains.

Yttrium- doped KNN thin films were grown on Si substrates using the sol-gel technique. The profound effects of Yttrium with different content element (mol % = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9) on the structural and electrical properties of KNN films were analyzed. The doped samples demonstrated a mainly uniform and homogenous microstructure with grain size less than 100 nm. The existence of Y Kα line shown in EDX spectrum confirmed the presence of Y-dopant in KNN based-compound. Small shift position of the Raman peaks indicated that Y incorporated on the interstitial A-site while broaden FWHM ascribed that Y preferably enters B-site lattice at high dopant concentration. The enhanced electrical resistivity at 0.5 mol % Y suggested that more conduction electrons were formed in KNN lattice structure.

Clockwise Hysteresis

Intergrowth-superlattice-structured SrBi4Ti4O15–Bi4Ti3O12(SBT–BIT) films prepared on p-Si substrates by sol-gel processing. Synthesized SBT–BIT films exhibit good ferroelectric properties. As the annealing temperature increases from 600°C to 700°C, the remanent polarization Prof SBT–BIT films increases, while the coercive electric field Ecdecreases. SBT–BIT films annealed at 700°C have a Prvalue of 18.9µC/cm2which is higher than that of SBT (16.8µC/cm2) and BIT (14.6µC/cm2), and have the lowest Ecof 142 kV/cm which is almost the same as that of SBT and BIT. The C-V curves of Ag/SBT-BIT/p-Si heterostructures show the clockwise hysteresis loops which reveal the memory effect due to the polarization. The memory window in C-V curve of Ag/SBT-BIT/p-Si is larger than that of Ag/SBT/p-Si heterostructure or Ag/BIT/p-Si heterostructure.

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.

Insulating Properties

The electrical properties of perovskite-based ferroelectric films were improved by ion modification using rare-earth cations. Thin films of rare-earth-modified lead zirconate titanate [Pb(Zr,Ti)O3] were fabricated on (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2/(100)Si substrates by a chemical solution deposition technique. The substitution of volatile cations in the simple-perovskite oxides, such as Pb2+ in Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 films, enhanced the insulating properties of the film. The crystal anisotropy of the Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 film could be controlled by varying the species and the amount of replacing cations to enhance the spontaneous polarization. Thus, ion modification using Dy3+ cation could enhance the remanent polarization of Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 film consequently.

In this study, SrBi4Ti4O15 (SBT) thin films were deposited onto the SiO2/p-Si(100) and Pt/Ti/SiO2/p-Si(100) substrates by using sol-gel method. After deposition, the SBT thin films were then heated by a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process conducted in air for 1min at 600-800°C. The surface morphologies and the crystalline structures of the SBT thin films were investigated by using SEM and XRD patterns. The grain sizes increased and the pores decreased with rising RTA temperature. In addition, the coercive field decreased and the remanent polarization and saturation polarization increased with rising RTA temperature. The lnJ-E1/2 curves of the SBT thin films were also investigated to find the leakage current mechanisms correspond either to the Schottky emission or to the Poole-Frenkel emission.
