졸-겔 법으로 성장시킨 Nb가 첨가된 Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 박막의 미세구조와 전기적 성질
Microstructures and Electrical Properties of Niobium-doped Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 Thin Films Fabricated by a Sol-gel Route `
E-mail:
Bismuth layered structure ferroelectric thin films, Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 / (BTO) and Nb-doped BTO (BTN) were prepared on the Pt(111)/Ti/ SiO 2 /Si(100) substrates by a sol-gel route. We investigated the Nb-doping effect on the grain orientation and ferroelectric properties. Nb 5+ ion substitution for Ti 4+ ion in perovskite layers of BTO decreased the degree of c-axis orientation and increased the remanent polarization (2Pr). The fatigue resistance of Nb-doped BTO thin film was shown to be superior to that of BTO, and the leakage current of Nb-doped BTO thin film was decreased about 1 order of magnitude compared with BTO. The improvement of ferroelectric properties with Nb 5+ doping in BTO could be attributed to the changes in space charge densities and grain orientation in the thin film.
