Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 Ferroelectric Thin Films Prepared by RF Magnetron Sputtering

Article Preview

Abstract:

Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 (BLT) ferroelectric thin films were deposited on Pt/Si substrates by RF magnetron sputtering with Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 (x=0.5, 0.75, 1) targets with 50-mm diameter and 5-mm thickness. The effects of La contents on microstructure and ferroelectric properties of Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 thin films were investigated. The grain growth behavior and ferroelectric properties such as remanent polarization were found to be dependent on the La contents in the BLT thin films.
