Characterization of Lead Zirconate-Titanate Thin Films Prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition
Dense smooth lead zirconate-titanate thin films have been prepared by excimer laser deposition. The as-deposited films are amorphous as indicated by x-ray powder patterns. Differential scanning calorimetry stu...

Preparation of PbTiO3-Pb(Mg0.5W0.5)O3 Thin Films Using Pulsed Laser Deposition
The preparation of modified lead titanate (0.9PbTiO3-0.1Pb(Mg0.5W0.5)O3) thin films by pulsed excimer laser deposition on Pt-coated Si substrates has been studied. Films were prepared with substrate temperatures ...

Dielectric Constant and Hysteresis Loop Remanent Polarization from 100 Hz to 2 MHz for Thin Ferroelectric Films
A modification of the standard Sawyer-Tower circuit method of displaying ferroelectric hysteresis allowed the technique to be extended to sinusoidal switching frequencies of 2 MHz. Using this method, probe sta...

Texturing and Dielectric Properties of Laser Deposited BaTiO3 Thin Films Grown on Heated Substrates
Thin films of BaTiO3 were deposited on platinum-coated silicon substrates using pulsed laser deposition and characterized using electron microscopy, powder x-ray diffraction and electrical measurements. The micro...

Post-Processing of Pulsed Laser-Deposited Pzt Thin Films
PZT thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition on unheated Ptcoated Si substrates. As deposited, the films were amorphous. Films crystallized at 550–600 °C to produce predominantly crystalline ferroel...

Photovoltaic Effect in Thin Ferroelectric Films
Polarization-dependent photovoltaic currents are observed in continuously illuminated ferroelectric thin films under conditions of polarization reversal. Following reversal, an initial current rapidly decays t...
