    Notes: A method for lowering the processing temperature of PbZr1−xTixO3 (PZT) films was developed utilizing a laser-assisted two-step process. In the first step, perovskite phase was initiated in the PZT films to a furnace anneal at low temperatures in the range of 470–550 °C, depending on the Zr/Ti ratio. Later, the films were laser annealed (using KrF excimer laser) at room temperature to grow the perovskite phase, and to improve microstructure and ferroelectric properties. It was found that this two-step process was very effective in producing excellent quality ferroelectric PZT films at low temperatures. It should be noted that although laser annealing of amorphous and/or pyrochlore films directly (one-step process) produced perovskite phase, the ferroelectric properties of these films, irrespective of the composition, were rather unattractive. Some possible reasons for the ineffectiveness of the one-step process were discussed. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The degradation (fatigue) of dielectric properties of ferroelectric Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 (PZT) and SrBi2Ta2O9 thin films during cycling was investigated. PZT and SrBi2Ta2O9 thin films were fabricated by metalorganic decomposition and pulsed laser deposition, respectively. Samples with electrodes of platinum (Pt) and ruthenium oxide (RuO2) were studied. The interfacial capacitance (if any) at the Pt/PZT, RuO2/PZT, and Pt/SrBi2Ta2O9 interfaces was determined from the thickness dependence of low-field dielectric permittivity (εr) measurements. It was observed that a low εr layer existed at the Pt/PZT interface but not at the RuO2/PZT and Pt/SrBi2Ta2O9 interfaces. In the case of Pt/PZT, the capacitance of this interfacial layer decreases with increasing fatigue while the εr of the bulk PZT film remains constant. This indicates that fatigue increases the interfacial layer thickness and/or decreases interfacial layer permittivity, but does not change the bulk properties. For the capacitors with RuO2/PZT/RuO2 and Pt/SrBi2Ta2O9/Pt structures, however, the εr does not change with ferroelectric film thickness or fatigue cycling. This implies no interfacial layer exists at the interfaces and which can be correlated to the observed nonfatigue effect. Additionally, the equivalent energy-band diagrams of these different capacitor structures were proposed to complement the proposed fatigue mechanism. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: High-resolution and bright- and dark-field transmission electron microscopy are used to characterize and compare the interface structures and microstructure of PZT/RuO2/SiO2/Si and PZT/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si ferroelectric thin films, with a view to understanding the improved fatigue characteristics of PZT thin films with RuO2 electrodes. The RuO2/PZT interface consists of a curved pseudoperiodic minimal surface. The interface is chemically sharp with virtually no intermixing of RuO2 and PZT, as evidenced by the atomic resolution images as well as energy dispersive x-ray analysis. A nanocrystalline pyrochlore phase Pb2ZrTiO7−x, x≠1, was found on the top surface of the PZT layer. The PZT/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si thin film was well crystallized and showed sharp interfaces throughout. Possible reasons for the improved fatigue characteristics of PZT/RuO2/SiO2/Si thin films are discussed.

    Notes: A spectrum analysis method for the linear, direct, and self-consistent measurement of dynamic modulation depth of polarization modulators is presented. This method utilizes the Bessel recurrence relation to determine the modulation depth from the photodetector voltage amplitudes at the fundamental frequency and its next three harmonics. Based on the existing J1–J4 method of dynamic phase-shift measurement in homodyne interferometry, this method is useful for calibration of polarization modulated ellipsometers. The method is demonstrated through the use of a highly birefringent transparent thin film of piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride with indium tin oxide electrodes. The theoretical analysis of the measured noise factor for the particular system configuration predicted a minimum detectable polarization modulation depth of 0.2 rad, and was experimentally verified.

    Notes: We report on the properties of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 thin films prepared by the metalorganic solution deposition technique. Bulk Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 ceramics have shown excellent dielectric properties at microwave frequencies; however, the high sintering temperature of bulk material is the major obstacle in their use as dielectric resonators to miniaturize microwave circuits. It was possible to obtain an ordered-perovskite phase of 0.3-μm-thick Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 films with trigonal symmetry at an annealing temperature of 700 °C, which is much lower than the bulk sintering temperatures. The electrical measurements were conducted on Pt/Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3/Pt capacitors. The typical measured small signal dielectric constant and dissipation factor at 100 kHz were 22.2 and 0.009, respectively. The dielectric constant of thin films was comparable to the typical values (εr∼23.5–25) reported for bulk ceramics. The temperature coefficient of capacitance was −145 ppm/°C in the measured temperature range of 25–125 °C. The leakage current density was lower than 10−7 A/cm2 at an applied electric field of 0.5 MV/cm. The high dielectric constant, which is comparable to bulk, low dielectric loss, and good temperature and bias stability suggest the suitability of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 thin films for microwave communications and integrated capacitor applications. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have investigated the structural and electrical properties of sol-gel derived Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) thin films deposited on Ir electrode barrier (Ir/poly-Si/SiO2/Si). Owing to the interface-controlled growth, highly c-axis oriented perovskite PZT thin films were obtained for the postdeposition annealing temperature of 580 °C. Additionally, we found that the ferroelectric properties of IrO2/PZT/Ir/poly-Si capacitors were remarkably changed by the partial pressure of oxygen during the deposition of IrO2 top electrodes, which could be due to the enhanced reaction of IrO2 with PZT by the oxygen ion bombardments. Remanent polarization and coercive field of IrO2/PZT/Ir/poly-Si capacitor with the top electrodes deposited at PO2=1 mTorr was 20 μC/cm2 and 30 kV/cm, respectively, and showed negligible polarization fatigue up to 1011 switching repetitions. The leakage current density at a field of 80 kV was 5×10−8 A/cm2. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Significant effect of the introduction of O2-plasma discharge during pulsed laser ablative deposition of SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) films on improving the crystallite orientation and ferroelectric properties has been described. O2-plasma assists in the formation of highly crystalline films at a low 700 °C temperature over (111) oriented Pt films coated Si(100) single crystal substrates at a nominal pressure of 200 mTorr. Plasma excitation potential, applied at an auxiliary ring electrode placed near the substrate, has a profound effect on surface morphology, crystallite orientation, and remnant polarization, Pr values. At −350 V, SBT growth at 700 °C with predominant (a-b) orientation showing high Pr∼6.5 μC/cm2 in the as-deposited state has been obtained. In comparison, SBT films deposited identically but without the plasma show a low Pr of ∼1.7 μC/cm2. Ionized cationic species along with ionic and atomic oxygen present in the plasma improve thermodynamic stability of the film growth through enhanced chemical reactivity and thus eliminates the need for any severe postgrowth crystallization anneal step in the synthesis of SBT films. Impingement of energetic O2 ions and atomic oxygen helps lower the nucleation barrier for the growth of (a-b) crystallites and changes the c-axis orientation from normal to near parallel to the film plane. Quality of the film declines with the plasma excitation potential as enhanced kinetic energy of impinging O2 ions introduce defects and reduce nucleation density by resputtering from the substrate. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: This has been accomplished in the past using four/five separate electrode- and diffusion-barrier layers. In this letter, we report a novel Pt–Rh–Ox/Pt–Rh/Pt–Rh–Ox electrode-barrier structure which acts as an electrode as well as a diffusion barrier for integration of the ferroelectric capacitors directly onto silicon deposited using an in situ reactive rf sputtering process. The electrodes have a smooth and fine grained microstructure and are excellent diffusion barriers between the PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3 (PZT) and Si substrate and exhibit good thermal stability up to very high processing temperatures of 700 °C. The ferroelectric (PZT) test capacitors using these electrode barriers grown directly on Si, show well saturated hysteresis loops with Pr and Ec of 16 μC/cm2 and 30–40 kV/cm, respectively. The capacitors exhibit no significant fatigue loss (〈5%) up to 1011 cycles and have low leakage currents (2×10−8 A/cm2 at 100 kV/cm). These electrode barriers can be used to directly integrate the thin film capacitors on the source/drain of the transistors of the memory cell structure for accomplishing large scale integration.© 1997 American Institute of Physics.
