[ $Sr_xBa_{1-x}Nb_2O_6$ ] (SBN, $0.25{\leq}x{\leq}0.75$) ceramic is a ferroelectric material with tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) type structure, which has a high pyroelectric coefficient and a nonlinear electro-optic coefficient value. In spite of its advantages, SBN has not been investigated well compared to other ferroelectric materials with perovskite structure. In this study, SBN thin film was manufactured by ion beam sputtering technique using the prepared SBN target in $Ar/O_2$ atmosphere. SBN30 thin film of $1000{\AA}$ was pre-deposited as a seed layer on $Pt(100)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrate followed by SBN60 deposition up to $3000{\AA}$ in thickness. As-deposited SBN60/SBN30 layer was heat-treated at different temperatures of 650, 700, 750, and $800^{\circ}C$ in air, respectively The crystallinity and orientation behavior as well as electric properties of SBN60/SBN30 multi-layer were examined. The deposited layer was uniform and the orientation was shown primarily along (001) plane from XRD pattern. There was no difference in the crystal structure with heat-treatment temperature, but the electric properties depended on the heating temperature and was the best at $750^{\circ}C$. In electric properties of Pt/SBN60/SBN30/Pt thin film capacitor prepared, the remnant polarization (2Pr) value was $15{\mu}C/cm^2$, the coercive field (Ec) 75 kV/cm, and the dielectric constant 1075, respectively.

A processing method is developed for preparing sol-gel derived $Pb(Zr_{1-x}Ti_x)O_3$ (x=0.5) thin films on Pt-Ir($Pt_{80}Ir_{20}$)-alloy substrates. The as-deposited layer was dried on a plate in air at $70^{\circ}C$. And then it was baked at $1500^{\circ}C$, annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ and finally annealed for crystallization at various temperatures ranging from $580^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$ for 1hour in a tube furnace. The thickness of the annealed film with three layers was $0.3{\mu}m$. Crystalline properties and surface morphology were examined using X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Electrical properties of the films such as dielectric constant, C-V, leakage current density were measured under different annealing temperature. The PZT thin film which was crystallized at $600^{\circ}C$ for 60minutes showed the best structural and electrical dielectric constant is 577. C-V measurement show that $700^{\circ}C$ sample has window memory volt of 2.5V and good capacitance for bias volts. Leakage current density of every sample show $10^{-8}A/cm^2$ r below and breakdown voltage(Vb) is that 25volts.

본 논문에서는 p-type (100)Si, (100)MgO 그리고 MgO/si 기판 위에 RF Magnetron sputtering 법으로 $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST)박막을 증착하였다. BST 박막 증착 후 RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing)를 이용하여 $600^{\circ}C$에서 산소분위기로 1분간 고온 급속 열처리를 하였다. 증착된 BST박막의 결정화를 조사하기 위해 XRD(X-Ray Diffraction)측정을 한 결과 모든 기판에서 (110) $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(의 주피크가 관찰되어졌고, 열처리 후 재결정화에 기인하여 피크 세기가 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었다. Al 전극을 이용한 커패시터 제작 후 측정한 C-V(Capacitance-Voltage) 특성에서 각각의 기판에서 측정된 커패시턴스 값으로 계산된 유전율은 120(bare Si), 305(Mgo/Si) 그리고 310(MgO)이었다. 누설 전류 특성에서는 0.3 MV/cm이내의 인가전계에서 1 $\mu\textrm{A/cm}^2$ 이하의 안정된 값을 보여주었다. 결론적으로 MgO 버퍼층을 이용한 기판이 BST 박막의 증착을 위한 기판으로써 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

In spite of its advantages, SBN has not been investigated well compared to other ferroelectric materials with perovskite structure. In this study, SBN thin film was manufactured by ion beam sputtering technique using the prepared SBN target in Ar/$O_2$ atmosphere. SBN30 thin film of 500 ${\AA}$ was pre-deposited as a seed layer on Pt(l00)/$TiO_2$/$SiO_2$/Si substrate followed by SBN60 deposition up to 4500 ${\AA}$ in thickness. SBN60/SBN30 layer was deposited at different Oxygen amount of 0, 8.1, 17, and 31.8 sccm, respectively. The crystallinity and orientation behavior as well as electric properties of SBN60/SBN30 multi-layer were examined. The deposited layer was uniform and the orientation was shown primarily along (001) plane from XRD pattern. The crystal structure and the electric properties depended on the Oxygen amount, heating temperature and was the best at O2 = 8.1 seem, $750^{\circ}C$. In electric properties of Pt/SBN60/SBN30/Pt thin film capacitor prepared, the remnant polarization (2Pr) value was 13 ${\mu}C/cm^2$, the coercive field (Ec) 75 kV/cm, and the dielectric constant 1492, respectively.

In the present study, we fabricated stoichiometric $(Ba_{1-x}Sr_x)TiO_3$ thin films at various substrate temperature and contents using of magnetron sputtering method on optimized Pt-based electrodes (Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si). The substate temperature deposited at 200[ $^{\circ}C$], 400[$^{\circ}C$] and 600[$^{\circ}C$] and crystalline BST thin films show above 400[$^{\circ}C$]. Also, the composition of $(Ba_{1-x}Sr_x)TiO_3$ thin films deposited on Si wafer substrate at 400[$^{\circ}C$] were closed to stoichiometry($1.015{\sim}1.093$ in A/B ratio), but compositional deviation from a stoichiometry is larger as $SrCO_3$ is added. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in $(Ba_{1-x}Sr_x)TiO_3$thin films is observed above 100[kHz]. V-I characteristics of $(Ba_{1-x}Sr_x)TiO_3$ thin films show the decrease of leakage current with the increase of $SrCO_3$ contents.

$(Pb_{0.72}La_{0.28})Ti_{0.93}O_3(PLT(28))$ thin films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition. PLT films deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ at $600^{\circ}C$ had a preferred orientation in (111) plane and at $550^{\circ}C$ had a (100) preferred orientation. We found that (111) preferred oriented films had well grown normal to substrate surface. This PLT(28) thin films of $1{\mu}m$ thickness had dielectric properties of ${\varepsilon}_r$=1300, dielectric $loss{\fallingdotseq}0.03 $. and had charge storage density of 10 [${\mu}C/cm^2$] and leakage current density of less than $10^{-6}[A/cm^2]$ at 100[kV/cm]. These results indicated that the PLT(28) thin films fabricated by pulsed laser deposition are suitable for DRAM capacitor application.

In this paper, in-situ deposited $Ru/RuO_2$ bottom electrodes have been investigated as new bottom electrodes for PZT thin film capacitor application. As a comparison, structural and electrical properties of PZT thin films on Pt/Ti and $RuO_2$ bottom electrodes are also investigated. The use of $Ru/RuO_2$ hybrid electrodes showed better electrical properties in compression with $RuO_2$ bottom electrode. With increasing Ru electrode thickness, the PZT thin films showed preferred orientation along the (110) direction and and leakage current of PZT thin films were improved. The PZT thin films on Ru (100nm)/$RuO_2$ electrodes exhibited excellent ferroelectric properties such as remant polarization and coercive field of $7.2C/cm^2$ and 46.35 kV/cm, respectively.

We report the growth of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) thin films and their substrate-dependent electrical characteristics. BST thin films were deposited on alumina(non-single crystal), $Al_2O_3$(100) substrates by Nd:YAG Pulsed Laser Deposition(PLD) with a 355nm wavelength at substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and post-deposition annealing at $750^{\circ}C$ in flowing $O_2$ atmosphere for 1hours. BST materials had been chosen due to high dielectric permittivity and tunability for high frequency applications, To analyze the oxygen partial pressure effects, deposited films at 1, 10, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300 mTorr. The effects of oxygen pressure on structural properties of the deposited films have been investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and atomic force microscope(AFM), respectively. Then we manufactured a inter-digital capacitor(IDC) patterns twenty fingers and $10{\mu}m$ gap, $700{\mu}m$ length and electrical properties were characterized. The results provide a basis for understanding the growth mechanisms and basic structural and electrical properties of BST thin films as required for tunable microwave devices applications such as varactors and tunable filters.

The structural and electrical properties of amorphous $BaSm_2Ti_4O_{12}$ (BSmT) films on a $TiN/SiO_2/Si$ substrate deposited using a RF magnetron sputtering method were investigated. The deposition of BSmT films was carried out at $300^{\circ}C$ in a mixed oxygen and argon ($O_2$ : Ar = 1 : 4) atmosphere with a total pressure of 8.0 mTorr. In particular, a 45 nm-thick amorphous BSmT film exhibited a high capacitance density and low dissipation factor of $7.60\;fF/{\mu}m2$ and 1.3%, respectively, with a dielectric constant of 38 at 100 kHz. Its capacitance showed very little change, even in GHz ranges from 1.0 GHz to 6.0 GHz. The quality factor of the BSmT film was as high as 67 at 6 GHz. The leakage current density of the BSmT film was also very low, at approximately $5.11\;nA/cm^2$ at 2 V; its conduction mechanism was explained by the the Poole-Frenkel emission. The quadratic voltage coefficient of capacitance of the BSmT film was approximately $698\;ppm/V^2$, which is higher than the required value (<$100\;ppm/V^2$) for RF application. This could be reduced by improving the process condition. The temperature coefficient of capacitance of the film was low at nearly $296\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ at 100 kHz. Therefore, amorphous BSmT grown on a TiN substrate is a viable candidate material for a metal-insulator-metal capacitor.
