Lead free $(Ba_{0.7}Ca_{0.3})TiO_3$ thick films with nano-sized grains are prepared using an aerosol deposition (AD) method at room temperature. The crystallinity of the AD thick films is enhanced by a post annealing process. Contrary to the sharp phase transition of bulk ceramics that has been reported, AD films show broad phase transition behaviors due to the nano-sized grains. The polarization-electric hysteresis loop of annealed AD film shows ferroelectric behaviors. With an increase in annealing temperature, the saturation polarization increases because of an increase in crystallinity. However, the remnant polarization and cohesive field are not affected by the annealing temperature. BCT AD thick films annealed at $700^{\circ}C/2h$ have an energy density of $1.84J/cm^3$ and a charge-discharge efficiency of 69.9 %, which is much higher than those of bulk ceramic with the same composition. The higher energy storage properties are likely due to the increase in the breakdown field from a large number of grain boundaries of nano-sized grains.

This study examines paraelectric $Bi_{1.5}Zn_{1.0}Nb_{1.5}O_7$ (BZN), which has no hysteresis and high dielectric strength, for energy density capacitor applications. To increase the breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film further, poly(vinylidene fluoride) BZN-PVDF composite film is fabricated by aerosol deposition. The volume ratio of each composition is calculated using dielectric constant of each composition, and we find that it was 12:88 vol% (BZN:PVDF). To modulate the structure and dielectric properties of the ferroelectric polymer PVDF, the composite film is heat-treated at $200^{\circ}C$ for 5 and 30 minutes following quenching. The amount of ${\alpha}-phase$ in the PVDF increases with an increasing annealing time, which in turn decreases the dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film increases by mixing PVDF. However, the breakdown field decreases with an increasing annealing time. The BZN-PVDF composite film has the energy density of $4.9J/cm^3$, which is larger than that of the pure BZN film of $3.6J/cm^3$.

세라믹 타겟인 Sr$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{7}$ (SNO)과 Bi$_2$O$_3$을 장착한 RF-마그네트론 스퍼터링을 이용하여 SrBi$_2$Nb$_2$O$_{9}$ (SBN) 박막을 p-type Si(100) 기판 위에 증착하였다. 증착시 두 타겟의 파워비를 조절하여 조성의 변화에 따른 SBN 박막의 구조적 및 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 증착된 SBN 박막은 $700^{\circ}C$의 산소분위기에서 1시간 동안 열처리를 하였으며 상부전극으로 Pt를 증착한 후 산소분위기에서 30분 동안 $700^{\circ}C$에서 전극 후열처리를 실시하였다. 증착된 SBN 박막은 $700^{\circ}C$ 열터리 후에 페로브스카이트 상을 나타냈으며 SNO 타겟과 Bi$_2$O$_3$타겟의 파워가 120 W/100 W 일 때 가장 좋은 전기적 특성을 나타내었다. 이때의 조성은 EPMA(Electron Probe X-ray Micro Analyzer) 분석을 통하여 확인하였으며 Sr:Bi:Nb의 비가 약 1:3:2임을 나타내었다. 이러한 과잉의 Bi조성을 가진 SBN 박막은 3-9 V의 인가전압에서 1.8 V-6.3 V의 우수한 메모리 윈도우 값을 나타내었으며 누설전류 값은 인가전압 5 V에서 1.54$\times$$10^{-7}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$였다.
