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.

Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O3 thin films with thickness of 120nm, 190nm, 310nm, 440nm and 630nm were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by sol-gel process through repeating spining process 2 times, 4 times, 6 times, 8 times and 10 times respectively. The structures of PZT films were investigated by SEM and XRD analysis. The ferroelectric hysteresis loops were recorded by Radiant Precision Workstation and dielectric properties were measured using an Agilent HP4294A impedance analyzer. X-ray diffraction indicated that with the film thickness increasing, the diffraction intensity increased. The thickness of PZT film had great effect on ferroelectric and dielectric properties. Conclusively when the film thickness was about 310nm, the PZT thin films possessed better ferroelectric and dielectric properties.

This paper reports a study of Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3films deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. The annealing temperatures were 750°C, 850°C and 950°C. An increase of the average size of grains was observed, from 60 nm at 750°C to 110 nm at 950°C, as well as an increase of the dielectric constant, remnant polarization and tunability. When the annealing time was decreased from 1 hour to 15 min, the dielectric constant and remnant polarization values have been increased. The optimized annealing conditions (950°C for 15 min) give the following results: εr= 780 and tgδ = 0.01 at 100 kHz, Pr = 13 µC/cm², Ec = 63 kV/cm and a tunability of 55%.

s. Yttium-substituted bismuth titanate (Bi4-xYxTi3O12, BYT) thin films were deposited on the (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2(100) substrates by a modified Sol-Gel process and studied in this work in terms ofY3+-modified microstructure and phase development as well as ferroelectric properties. With the aid of the fist-principle, the position of Y3+substitution for Bi3+on the microstructure of BYT was studied.The phase change in the formation of BYT crystalline and the effect of Y3+substitution for Bi3+on the microstructure of BYT was studiedbyXRD. The results showed that the optimal properties of the obtained BYT ferroelectric thin films werex:0.6. The ferroelectric properties of the films were also investigated. When the Y-substituted contentxwas equal to 0.6, the remnant polarization was the largest. The remnant polarization 2Prvalue was equal to 16.02μC/cm2and the coercive fieldEcvalue was 88 kV/cm.

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.

ABSTRACTBa0.8Sr0.2TiO3 (BST) thin films and Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3/ZrO2 heterostructured thin films have been successfully fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by a sol-gel process. The dielectric properties of these films were measured as a function of temperature in the frequency range of 1 kHz to 1 MHz. It is clearly observed that the dielectric peaks exist and shift to high temperature with the increase of frequency indicating the presence of relaxor-type behavior in the films. Also it is seen that one dielectric peak is observed in single layer BST thin films whereas two dielectric peaks are observed in BST/ZrO2 heterostructured thin films due to the presence of two dielectric layers having different band gap energies. The variation of peak temperature Tm, corresponding to dielectric loss maximum, with frequency and fitting to Arrhenius law gives activation energy of 1.24 eV which is very close to the activation energy of oxygen vacancies in BaTiO3. Hence, oxygen vacancies are the active defects which are contributing to the relaxation process in these films.

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.
