BaTiO$_3$thin films were deposited on Pt/SiO$_2$/Si substrates by RF sputtering technique. The structural and crystallographic properties were studied with deposition conditions and annealing temperatures. Deposition rates and structural properties of BaTiO$_3$thin films were investigated by the SEM, XRD and AFM. The thickness of BaTiO$_3$thin films deposited with optimized conditions was 5200[$\AA$]. The grain size was found to increase remarkably with increasing sputtering power and independent on the sputtering pressure.

The dielectric reliability of a polycrystalline and a multilayered $BaTiO_3$ thin films was evaluated using a time-zero dielectric breakdown (TZDB) and a time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) techniques. The $BaTiO_3$ thin films were prepared by rf-magnetron sputtering technique on ITO-coated glass substrates. In case of the multilayered $BaTiO_3$ thin film, the dielectric breakdown histogram, which was obtained from the TZDB measurements, showed a typical Weibull distribution. While in case of polycrystalIine $BaTiO_3$ thin film, a randomly distributed dielectric breakdown histogram was observed. The TDDB results of the multilayered $BaTiO_3$ thin film guaranteed about $10^5$ hours-operation under the stress field of 1 MV/cm.

Thin films of $BaTiO_3$ system were prepared by radio frequency(rf)/dc magnetron sputtering method. We have investigated crystal structure, surface morphology and PTCR(positive-temperature coefficient of resistance) characteristics of the specimen depending on second heat-treatment temperatures. Second heat treatments of the specimen were performed in the temperature range of 400 to $1350^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction patterns of $BaTiO_3$ thin films show that the specimen heat treated below $600^{\circ}C$ is an amorphous phase and the one heat treated above $1100^{\circ}C$ forms a poly-crystallization. In the specimen heat-treated at $1300^{\circ}C$, a lattice constant ratio (c/a) was 1.188. Scanning electron microscope(SEM) image of $BaTiO_3$ thin films of the specimen heat treated in between 900 and $1100^{\circ}C}$ shows a grain growth. At $1100^{\circ}C$, the specimen stops grain-growing and becomes a poly-crystallization.

In this study, $BaTiO_3$ thin films were grown by RF-magnetron sputtering, and the effects of a post-annealing process on the structural characteristics of the $BaTiO_3$ thin films were investigated. For the crystallization of the grown thin films, post-annealing was carried out in air at an annealing temperature that varied from $500-1000^{\circ}C$. XRD results showed that the highest crystal quality was obtained from the samples annealed at $600-700^{\circ}C$. From the SEM analysis, no crystal grains were observed after annealing at temperatures ranging from 500 to $600^{\circ}C$; and 80 nm grains were obtained at $700^{\circ}C$. The surface roughness of the $BaTiO_3$ thin films from AFM measurements and the crystal quality from Raman analysis also showed that the optimum annealing temperature was $700^{\circ}C$. XPS results demonstrated that the binding energy of each element of the thin-film-type $BaTiO_3$ in this study shifted with the annealing temperature. Additionally, a Ti-rich phenomenon was observed for samples annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$. Depth-profiling analysis through a GDS (glow discharge spectrometer) showed that a stoichiometric composition could be obtained when the annealing temperature was in the range of 500 to $700^{\circ}C$. All of the results obtained in this study clearly demonstrate that an annealing temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ results in optimal structural properties of $BaTiO_3$ thin films in terms of their crystal quality, surface roughness, and composition.

고밀도 DRAM에서 박막 커패시터로의 적용을 위해 Zr이 첨가된 (Ba(sub)1-x, Sr(sub)x)TiO$_3$<원문차조> 박막이 r.f. magnetron sputter-ing 법에 의해 제조되었다. 증착된 박막들은 다결정질 구조를 보였으며 증착압력이 감소함에따라 Zr/Ti의 비가 현저히 증가하였으며 본 연구에서는 얻어진 박막들은 100kHz에서 380∼525의 유전상수값을 나타냈다. 전압에 따른 커패시턴스와 분극량의 변화는 이력특성을 크게 보이지 않아 상유전상으로 형성되었음을 보였다. 누설전류밀도는 증착압력이 감소함에 따라 작아지는 경향을 보였고 10mTorr이상에서 증착된 박막의 경우 200kV/cm의 전계에서 10(sup)-7∼10(sup)-8A/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 차수를 갖는 누설전류밀도를 보여 본 연구에서 제조된 (Ba(sub)1-x, Sr(sub)x)(Ti(sub)1-x, Zr(sub)x)O$_3$<원문참조>박막은 고밀도 DRAm을 위한 커패시터에의 적용가능성을 보였다.

(Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ 박막은 ULSI-DRAM 즉 1-4 Gbit급 DRAM용 셀(cell) 커패시터의 새로운 유전물질로 각광받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ICP 장비에서 $BCl_3/Cl_2/Ar$ 플라즈마로 (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ 박막을 식각하였다. 이때 RF power/dc bias voltage는 600W/-250V, 반응로의 압력은 10mTorr 이었다. $Cl_2/(Cl_2+Ar)$은 0.2로 고정하였고, $BCl_3$ 가스를 첨가하면서 (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ 박막을 식각하였다. $BCl_3$ 가스를 10% 첨가하였을 때, $480{\AA}/min$으로 (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ 박막은 가장 높은 식각 속도를 나타내었다. $Cl_2/Ar$가스에 $BCl_3$의 첨가 비에 따른 Cl, BCl 및 B의 라디칼 밀도를 optical emission spectroscopy(OES)에 의해 구하였다. $BCl_3$를 10% 첨가하였을 때 Cl의 라디칼 밀도가 가장 높았다. (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ 박막의 표면반응을 규명하기 위하여 XPS 분석을 수행한 결과 이온 bombardment 식각이 Ba-O 결합을 파괴하고 Ba와 Cl의 결합형태인 $BaCl_2$을 제거하기 위하여 필요하다. Sr과 Cl의 결합의 양은 많지 않고, Sr은 주로 물리적인 스퍼터링에 의하여 제거된다. Ti와 Cl은 화학적으로 반응하여 $TiCl_4$ 결합형태로 용이하게 제거된다. 식각후 단면사진을 SEM을 통해 본 결과 식각단면이 약 65~70$^{\circ}$ 정도였다.

$(Ba, Sr)TiO_{3}$[BST] thin films were fabricated on the Pt/TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by the RF sputtering. The structure and dielectric properties of the BST thin films with the substrate temperature were investigated. Increasing the substrate temperature, The BST phase increased and barium multi titanate phases decreased. Increasing the frequency, the dielectric constant decreased and the dielectric loss increased. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the BST thin films deposited at 50$0^{\circ}C$ were 300 and 0.018, respectively at 1 kHz. The leakage current density of the BST thin films deposited at 50$0^{\circ}C$ was $10^{-9}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ with applied voltage of 3V. Because of the high dielectric constant(300), low dielectric loss(0.018) and low leakage current($10^{-9}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$), BST thin films deposited at 50$0^{\circ}C$ is expecting for the application of DRAM.

It is known that amorphous BaTiO$_3$ thin films have good insulating properties[1][2]. In this investigation, amorphous BaTiO$_3$ thin films were deposited by rf magnetron sputtering on thick BaTiO$_3$ films of AC powder EL devices which were fabricated by screen-printing. The electrical and optical properties of the EL devices were then investigated. Adding amorphous BaTiO$_3$ thin film, it showed that leakage current density was decreased. Especially, leakage current density was decreased more with he sample of 0.5-hour deposition than the sample of 4-hours deposition. This result led to the improvement of luminous efficiency by 11%. It could be concluded that proper amorphous BaTiO$_3$ thin film deposition improved the surface property of dielectric layer.

An alkoxide-based sol-gel method was used to fabricate $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ thin films doped by Bi from 5 to 20 mol% on a $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. The structural and dielectric properties of BST thin films were investigated as a function of Bi dopant concentration. The dielectric properties of the Bi doped BST films were strongly dependent on the Bi contents. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the films decreased with increasing Bi content. However, the leakage current density of the 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ thin film showed the lowest value of $5.13{\times}10^{-7}\;A/cm^2$ at 5 V. The figure of merit (FOM) reached a maximum value of 32.42 at a 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ thin films. The dielectric constant, loss factor, and tunability of the 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ thin films were 333, 0.0095, and 31.1%, respectively.

$BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ and $PbTiO_3/PbZrO_3$ superlattice thin films were fabricated on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate by the pulsed laser deposition process. The morphologies and physical properties of deposited films were characterized by using X-ray diffractometer, HR-SEM, and Impedance Analyzer. XRD data and SEM images of the films indicate that each layer was well deposited alternatively in the superlattice structure. The dielectric constant of $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ superlattice thin film was higher than that of individual $BaTiO_3$ or $SrTiO_3$ film. Same result was obtained in the $PbTiO_3/PbZrO_3$system. The dielectric constant of a superlattice film was getting higher as the number of layer is increased.
