Abstract

PZT thin films were formed by rf-magnetron sputtering on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. Bulk PZT target containing $5\%$ excess PbO was used. They were formed with in-situ process at $650^{\circ}C$ as total thickness of 175 and 250 nm after the depositing of thin PZT films at room temperature, i. e. 2-step Sputtering. It was found that the ferroelectric perovskite phase is formed at $650^{\circ}C$ by XRD and the interface between room temp.-layer and $650^{\circ}C$ -layer is not existent. In the samples undergoing 2-step sputtering the dielectric constant was 600 or more and the leakage current density was $2{\times}10^{-7}A/cm^2$. So, we found that the room temp.-layer on the bottom electrode stabilize the underlaid layers.
