Temperature dependence of the ferroelectric properties of poly(vinylidefluoride-trifluoroethylene) copolymer thin films are studied with various insulators such as $SrTa_2O_6$ and $La_2O_3$. Thin films of poly(vinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene) 75/25 copolymer were prepared by chemical solution deposition on p-Si substrate. Capacitance-voltage (C-V) and current density (J-V) behavior of the Au/P(VDF-TrFE)/Insulator/p-Si structures were studied at ($150-200\;^{\circ}C$) and dielectric constant of the each insulators were measured to be about 15 at $850\;^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. Memory window width at 5 V bias the MFIS(metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor) structure with as deposited films was about 0.5 V at high temperature ($200\;^{\circ}C$). And the memory window width increased as voltage increased from 1 V to 5 V.

Ferroelectric $Bi_{4-x}Nd_xTi_3O_{12}$(BNdT) thin films with the composition(x=0.75) were prepared on pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100) substrate by metal-organic deposition. The electrical and structural characteristics of BNdT thin films were investigated to develop ferroelectric thin films for capacitor layers of FRAM. After spin coating, thin films were annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ for 1hour in oxygen atmosphere. Scanning electron micrographs showed uniform surfaces composed of rod-like grains. The $Bi_{4-x}Nd_xTi_3O_{12}$(X=0.75) thin film capacitors with a Pt top electrode showed better ferroelectric properties. At the applied voltage of 5V, the dielectric constant$(\varepsilon_r)$, dissipation factor$(tan{\delta})$, remanent polarization(2Pr) and nonvolatile swiching charge of the $Bi_{4-x}Nd_xTi_3O_{12}$(x=0.75)thin films were about 346.7, 0.095, $56{\mu}C/cm^2$ and $38{\mu}C/cm^2$ respectively. Also the capacitor did not show any significant fatigue up to $8{\times}10^{10}$ read/write switching cycles at a frequency of 1MHz.

In recent year, Ferroelectric $BLT(Bi_{4-x}La_{x}Ti_{3}O_{12})$ is a promising candidate materials. This study was practiced to make good conditions of BL T targets. In this study, calcination and sintering temperature were kept at $750^{\circ}C$, $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 hour respectively. the density obtained 7.612, 7.98, $7.877g/cm^{3}$ as $La_{2}O_{3}$ contents were 0.0mol%, 0.25mol%, 0.5mol%. Especially, the lanthanum content of 0.5 mol% measured C-axis (117) preferred orientation more than the others targets in the XRD. In $\varepsilon_{r}-f$ relationship using by HP 4194 A impedance analyzer, the 0.5 mol% observed above 200 relative dielectric constant. but the dissipation factor was higher than others targets at 100Hz~13MHz range. SEM photograph with the content of $La_{2}O_{3}$ was observed like rod and plate types.

The $LiNbO_3$ thin films were prepared directly on Si(100) substrates by conventional RF magnetron spurttering system for nonvolatile memory applications. RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing) treatment was performed for as-deposited films in an oxygen atmosphere at 600 $^{\circ}C$ for 60 s. The rapid thermal annealed films were changed to poly-crystalline ferroelectric nature from amorphous of as-deposition. The resistivity of the ferroelectric $LiNbO_3$ film was increased from a typical value of $1{\sim}2{\times}10^8{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ before the annealing to about $1{\times}10^{13}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at 500 kV/cm and reduced the interface state density of the $LiNbO_3/Si$ (100) interface to about $1{\times}10^{11}/cm^2{\cdot}eV$. Ferroelectric hysteresis measurements using a Sawyer-Tower circuit yielded remanent polarization ($P_r$) and coercive field ($E_c$) values of about 1.2 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and 120 kV/cm, respectively.

The effect of excess Bi contents on the ferroelectric properties of B $i_{3.25}$ L $a_{0.75}$ $Ti_3$ $O_{12}$ (BLT) thin films has been investigated. Bismuth lanthanum titanate thin films with excess Bi contents were prepared onto Pt/Ti/ $SiO_2$/Si substrate by metalorganic decomposition (MOD) technique. The structure and morphology of the films were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), respectively. From the XRD analysis, BLT thin films show polycrystalline structure and the layered-perovskite phase was obtained over 10% excess of Bi contents. As a result of ferroelectric characteristics related to the Bi content of the BLT thin film, the remanent polarization and dielectric constant decreased with increasing over Bi content of 10% excess. The BLT film with Bi content of 10% excess was measured to have a dielectric constant of 326 and dielectric loss of 0.024. The BLT thin films showed little polarization fatigue test up to 3.5$\times$10$^{9}$ bipolar switching cycling.

Ferroelectric lanthanum-substituted Bi$_4$Ti$_3$O$_{12}$(BLT) thin films were fabricated by spin-coating onto a Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by metalorganic decomposition technique. The grain size in BLT thin films were prepared with controlled by various drying process. The effect of grain size on the crystallization and ferroelectric properties were investigated by x-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscope. The dependence of crystallization and electrical properties are related to the grain size in BLT thin films with different drying temperature. The remanent polarization of BLT thin film increases with the increasing grain size. The value of 2P$_{r}$ and E$_{c}$ of BLT thin film dried at 45$0^{\circ}C$ were 25.9 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 85 kV/cm, respectively. The BLT thin film with larger grain size has better fatigue properties. The fatigue properties revealed that small grained film showed more degradation of switching charge than large grained films.lms.s.

Ferroelectric SrxBi2+yTa2O9+$\alpha$ thin films with various compositions(x=0.7, 0.8, 1, y=0.3, 0.4) were prepared by sol-gel method. The film with moled ratio of 0.8:2.3:2.0 in Sr/Bi/Ta, which was deposited on Pt/SiO2/Si (100), showed better ferroelectric properties than other films. To investigate substrate effects, the same compositions were spin coated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si (100) substrates. At an applied voltage of 5V, the dielectric constant($\varepsilon$r), remanent polarization (2Pr) and coercive field (Ec) of the Sr0.8Bi2.3Ta2O9+$\alpha$ thin film prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si (100) were about 296, 24$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and Ec of 49kV/cm respectively. Both SBT films firred at 80$0^{\circ}C$ revealed no fatigue up to 1010 cycles. Retention characteristics of these capacitors showed no degradation up to 104 sec.

Etching behaviors of ferroelectric YMn $O_3$ thin films were studied by an inductively coupled plasma (ICP). Etch characteristic on ferroelectric YMn $O_3$ thin film have been investigated in terms of etch rate, selectivity and etch profile. The maximum etch rate of YMn $O_3$ thin film is 300 $\AA$/min at Ar/C $l_2$ of 2/8, RF power of 800W, dc bias voltage of 200V, chamber pressure of 15mTorr and substrate temperature of 3$0^{\circ}C$. Addition of C $F_4$ gas decrease the etch rate of YMn $O_3$ thin film. From the results of XPS analysis, Y $F_{X}$ compunds were found on the surface of YMn $O_3$ thin film which is etched in Ar/C1/C $F_4$ plasma. The etch profile of YMn $O_3$ film is improved by addition of C $F_4$ gas into the Ar/C $l_2$ plasma. These results suggest that fluoride yttrium acts as a sidewall passivants which reduce the sticking coefficient of chlorine on YMn $O_3$.>.
