Ferroelectric Properties of Ferroelectric $Bi_{4-x}Y_{x}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ Thin Films

$Bi_{4-x}Y_{x}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ [BYT] 강유전 박막의 강유전 특성

$Bi_{3.25}Y_{0.75}Ti_{3}O_{12}$[BYT] ferroelectric thin films were deposited by RF-Sputtering method on the $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$. We investigated the effects of processing condition (especially post-annealing) on the structural and ferroelectric properties of the BYT thin films. Increasing the annealing temperature, the peak intensity of (117) increased and c-axis orientation decreased. The BYT thin films crystallized well at $600^{\circ}C$ for 30min. No secondary phases observed in the XRD pattern. At annealing temperature of $700^{\circ}C$, the thin films had no cracks and the grain was uniform. The calculated lattice constants of BYT thin films were a=0.539nm, b=0.536nm, c=3.288nm. The remnant polarization of the $Bi_{3.25}Y_{0.75}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ capacitor reached $1.8uC/cm^2$ at an applied field about 400kV/cm. The BYT thin films can be used as capacitors in Ferroelectric Random Access Memory device.
