Nd-doped bismuth titanate Bi4-xNdxTi3O12 (BNT) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by sol-gel method and spin-coating technique. The structures and the ferroelectric properties of the films were investigated. Nd doping leads to a marked improvement in the remanent polarization (Pr) and the coercive field (Ec). At the applied electric field of 260 kV/cm, Pr and Ec of the BNT film with x=0.5 annealed at 650oC are 19 μC/cm2 and 135 kV/cm, respectively. Moreover, the BNT film with x=0.5 showed a fatiguefree behavior up to 3×1010 read/write cycles.

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.

Sm-doped bismuth titanate and random oriented Bi4-xCexTi3O12 (BCT) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates rf magnetron sputtering technique. The structures and the ferroelectric properties of the films were investigated. Ce doping leads to a marked improvement in the remanent polarization (Pr) and the coercive field (Ec). At the applied electric field of 100 kV/cm, Pr and Ec of the BCT (x = 0.8) film annealed at 650 oC are 20.5 μC/cm2 and 60 KV/cm, respectively. However, after 3 × 1010 switching cycles, 20% degradation of 2Pr is observed in the film.

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.

This study examined the effect of crystalline orientation and dopants such as Nb and Zn on the piezoelectric coefficient of sol-gel driven Pb1(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3(PZT) and doped PZT thin films. Crack-free 1-μm-thick PZT and doped PZT thin films prepared by using 2-Methoxyethanol-based sol-gel method were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. The highly (111) oriented PZT thin films of pure perovskite structure could be obtained by controlling various parameters such as a PbTiO3 seed layer and a concentration of sol-gel solution. The Nb-Zn doped PZT thin films exhibited high piezoelectric coefficient which was about 50 % higher than that of undoped PZT thin film. The highest measured piezoelectric coefficient was 240 pC/N, which could be applicable to piezoelectrically operated MEMS actuator, sensor, or energy harvester devices.
