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.

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.

ABSTRACTTi-site substitution using the higher-valent cation was performed on ferroelectric thin films of neodymium-substituted bismuth titanate, (Bi,Nd)4Ti3O12(BNT), in order to improve its ferroelectric properties by compensating the space charge in BIT-based crystal. Ti-site-substituted BNT films, (Bi3.50Nd0.50)1-(x/12)(Ti3.00-xVx)O15(x= 0 ∼ 0.09), were fabricated on (111)Pt/Ti/ SiO2/(100)Si substrates using a chemical solution deposition (CSD) technique. V5+-substitution enhanced the remanent polarization of BNT film without change in the coercive field. V5+-substitution also exhibited the possibilities for improving the endurance against leakage current and fatigue degradation.

Initial Results

ABSTRACTNd substituted bismuth titanate Bi4-xNdxTi3O12 were synthesized by sol-gel process and thin films were deposited on Pt substrate (Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si) by spin coating. Thin films, characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, shows complete solid solution up to the composition x < 1. Initial results indicate that the ferroelectric polarization increases with increasing Nd content in the film with 2Pr = 50μC/cm2 for x = 0.46, which may have application in non-volatile ferroelectric memory devices.

ABSTRACTThin LiTaO3 films were prepared by spin coating of polymerized sol-gel precursor solution. Films have been deposited on single crystal silicon substrate, Ti/Pt or SiO2 coated silicon substrate. Films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, dielectric and pyroelectric Measurements. High Curie temperature (above 550 °C) was assumed for LiTaO3 thin films from the temperature dependence of dielectric constant. Replacing 35% of tantalum by titanium atoms in the LiTaO3 precursor solution has resulted the thin films with Curie temperature of 330 °C. The lower Curie temperature leads to the larger pyroelectric coefficient at room-temperature, which is more than double that of the undoped LiTaO3 thin films. The dielectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric properties have been compared to the single crystal LiTaO3 and ceramic Li0.91Ta0.73Ti0.36O3. LiTaO3 thin films are available by sol-gel process at low temperature, and their properties may possibly be controlled by varying the composition of the sol-gel precursor solution.

Dense Films

Nanoporous PbTiO3 films present enhanced tetragonality at lower temperatures than respective dense films. Moreover, the porosity present in the nanoporous films allows an increase of the local piezoelectric response and a decrease of the local coercive field. As a result, these nanoporous films might be used to improve the switching behaviour of ferroelectric thin films.
