Development of lead-free BaTiO3/NiFe2O4/BaTiO3 (BTO/NFO/BTO) trilayer structure thin films is significant for the realization of eco-friendly and implantable microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based devices. In the present work, we report BTO/NFO/BTO trilayer structure as a representative ferroelectric/ferromagnetic/ferroelectric (FE/FM/FE) system deposited on Pt(111)/TiO2/SiO2/Si using Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique. We report the ferroelectric, magnetic, and ME properties of BTO/NFO/BTO trilayer nanoscale heterostructure having dimensions 140/80/140 nm, at room temperature. High room temperature dielectric constant ~2145 at 100 Hz with low dielectric loss ~0.05 at 1 MHz is observed. Further, the deposited (BTO/NFO/BTO) tri-layered thin films showed magnetoelectric, multiferroic behavior with remanent polarization of 8.63 μCcm−2 at about 0.25 MV/cm and a reasonably high saturation magnetization of ~16 emu/cm3 at ~10 kOe is witnessed at room temperature. Tri-layered films have shown interesting magnetoelectric (ME) coupling coefficient (αE) ~54.5 mV/cm Oe at room temperature.

Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSCCO) and Bi-Pb-Sb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSSCCO) thin films were grown on MgO single crystal substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The deposition was carried out at room temperature during 90 minutes. A Nd:YAG excimer laser ( = 355 nm) with a 2 J/pulse energy density operated at 30 Hz was used. The distance between the target and substrate was kept constant at 4,5 cm. Nominal composition of the targets was Bi1,6Pb0,4Sr2Ca2Cu3O and Bi1,6Pb0,4Sb0,1Sr2Ca2Cu3OSuperconducting targets were prepared following a state solid reaction. As-grown films were annealed at different conditions. As-grown and annealed films were characterized by XRD, FTIR, and SEM. The films were prepared applying an experimental design. The relationship among deposition parameters and their effect on the formation of superconducting Bi-system crystalline phases was studied.

ABSTRACTReactive pulsed laser deposition has been used to deposit IrO2 thin films on both SiO2 and fused quartz substrates, by ablating a metal iridium target in oxygen atmosphere. At a KrF laser intensity of about 1.7 × 109 W/cm2, IrO2 films were deposited at substrate deposition temperatures ranging from room-temperature to 700 °C under an optimum oxygen ambient pressure of 200 mTorr. The structure, morphology, electrical resistivity and optical transmission of the deposited films were characterized as a function of their deposition temperature (Td). High quality IrO2 films are obtained in the 400–600 °C deposition temperature range. They are polycrystalline with preferred orientations, depending on the substrate, and show a dense granular morphology. At a Td as low as 400 °C, highly conductive IrO2 films with room-temperature resistivities as low as (42±6) μΩ cm are obtained. Over the 300–600 °C Td range, the IrO2 films were found to exhibit a maximum optical transmission at 450 °C (∼ 45 % at 500 nm for 80 nm-thick films).
