Ion beam assisted crystallization behavior of sol-gel derived $PbTiO_3$ thin films, deposited on bare silicon(100) substrates by spin-casting method, has been investigated. Ar ion bombardment was directly conducted on the spincoated film surface with or without heating the film from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$. Ion dose was changed from $5{\times}10^{15}$ to $7.5{\times}10^{16}$ $Ar^-/cm^2$. Formation of (110) oriented perovskite phase was obseerved with ion dose above $5{\times}10^{16}\; Ar^+/cm^2$. Crystallization of $PbTiO_3$ thin film could be enhanced with increasing the Air ion dose, or heating the substrate during ion bombardment. Crystallization of the $PbTiO_3$ films by ion bombardment was related to the local heating effect during ion bombardment.

Among the ferroeletric thin films that have been widely investigated for ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) applications, the $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) thin film is appropriate as a memory capacitor material due to its excellent fatigue endurance. SBT thin films were etched in high-density $Cl_2/Ar$ in inductively coupled plasma. The maximum etch rate of SBT film is $1834\;{\AA}/min$ under $Cl_2/(Cl_2+Ar)$ of 30 %, rf power of 700 W, dc-bias voltage of -250 V, chamber pressure of 11 mTorr and gas flow rate of 20 sccm.

Eu-doped lead zirconium titanate $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7})O_{3}$ thin films on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates prepared by a metalorganic decomposition (MOD) method. The effect on the structural and electrical properties of the films measured according to Eu content. Eu-doping altered significantly the dielectric and ferroelectric properties. The remanent polarization and coercive field decreased with increasing the concentration of Eu content. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the film decreased with increasing Eu contents. The 3 mol% of Eu-doped PZT thin film showed large remanent polarization and the fatigue characteristic of the film did not change up to $10^9$ switching cycles.

In this paper, the imparct of X-ray and plasma process-induced-damages to La doped Lead Zirconate Titanate (PLZT, (Pb1-xLa)(Zr0.5Ti0.5)O3) capacitor characteristics have been investigated from the viewpoint of gigabit scale dynamic random access memory (DRAM) applications. Plamsa damage causes asymmetric degradation on hysteresis characteristics of PLZT films. On the other hand, X-ray damage results in a symmetrical reduction of charge storage densities (Qc's) for both polarities. As La concentration increases in the films, the radiation hardness of PLZT films on X-ray and plasma exposures is improved. It is observed that the damaged devices are fully recovered by thermal annealing under oxygen ambient.

Dielectric thin films of PLT(Pb(La.Ti)O3) for the application of highly integrated memory devices have been deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates in situ by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). We have systematically investigated the variation of grain sizes depending on the condition of post-annealing and the variation of deposition rate. Both in-situ annealing and ex-situ annealing have been compared depending on the annealing time. C-V measurement, ferroelectric properties, leakage current and SEM were performed to investigate the electrical properties and the microstructural properties of Pb(La,Ti)$O_3$ films.

The effect of excess Pb contents on the etching of PZT thin films and their electrical properties has been investigated. Ferroelectric PZT(53/47) thin films were prepared by the metal alkoxide-based Sol-Gel method, in which they were spin-coating on P7Ti/Si02/Si substrate using the PZT(53/47) stock solutions with various excess Pb contents. Etching of PZT film was performed using planar inductively coupled Ar/Cl$_2$/BCl$_3$ plasma. The etch rate of PZT film was 2450 $\AA$/min at Ar(20)/BCl$_3$(80) gas mixing ratio and substrate temperature of 8$0^{\circ}C$.

A rf reactive sputter deposition technique was adopted to deposit ferroelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films with high rate from a ZrTi alloy target combined with PbO pellets. Deposition characterisitics including the effects of PbO are ratio were discussed. A new deposition mode called the quasi-metallic mode was observed. Perovskite PZT films were prepared at a growth temperature as low as$ 450^{\circ}C$. However, because the target structure is unstable, weproposed a mixture target consisted of Zr, Ti and PbO. Fundamental experiments were investigated using the powder target. Perovskite PZT film could be obtained at $450^{\circ}C$ with better electrical properties also.

YMnO$_3$films have been deposited with different Rf powers of 60W, 80W, 100W, and 120W. The structural properties of YMnO$_3$films on Si(100) were analysed by XRD(X-ray diffraction). The c-axis oriented peaks of YMnO$_3$were observed deposited in YMnO$_3$/Si(100) structure of RF power at 87$0^{\circ}C$ in oxygen ambient, and the peaks were enlarged by increasing The RF powers. The dielectric constant of the film deposited at 100W and 120W of RF power were about 19, 20 respectively.

Ferroelectric PZT heterolayered thin films were fabricated by spin coating method on the Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate using PZT(10/90) and PZT(90/10) metal alkoxide solutions. All PZT heterolayered films showed a homogeneous grain structure without presence of the rosette structure. It can be assumed that the lower PZT layers a role of nucleation site or seeding layer for the formation of the upper PZT layer. Zr and Ti diffusion into the Pt electrode were mainly distributed at the surface of Pt electrode beneath the PZT/Pt interface. The PZT/Pt interfacial layer showed a microstructure characterized by a grain phase surrounded by a Pb-deficient pyrochlore matrix phase. The relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss of the PZT-6 film were 567 and 3.6, respectively.
