BiFeO3 is a very promising multiferroic materials, which can present ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic properties at room temperature (Tn=643 K, Tc= 1103 K). Ferroelectric domains in BiFeO3 thin films have attracted much attention due to their potential applications in memory devices. The aim of this paper is to review the main factors which can influence the ferroelectric domain structure in BiFeO3 thin films, including substrate, doping and film thickness.

ABSTRACTThe ferroelectric domain structure in sputtered lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films has been investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and transmission electron diffraction (TED). The individual ferroelectric domains occur as {110}-type microtwins as is observed in the bulk ceramic. The arrangement and size of the ferroelectric domains is strongly dependent on the microstructure of the sputtered film.

Ferroelectric domains are twins that are formed when PZT undergoes a phase transformation from a non-ferroelectric cubic phase to a ferroelectric tetragonal phase upon cooling below ∼375°C.,1 The tetragonal phase is spontaneously polarized in the direction of c-axis, making each twin a ferroelectric domain. Thin foils of polycrystalline Pb (Zr.52Ti.48)03 were made by ion milling and observed in the Philips EM301 with a double tilt stage.
