(Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$[BST] thin films were fabricated on Pt/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering technique. The Mic개structure, dielectric and electrical properties of BST thin films were investigated with sputtering pressure. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the deposited thin film at sputtering pressure of 5 mTorr were about 91 and 1.9(%), respectively. Increasing sputtering pressure, leakage current was increased. It was found that leakage current of BST thin films was depended on the sputtering pressure.

PTCR(Positive Temperature Coefficient of Resistivity) thermistor in thin film BaTiO$_{3}$ system was prepared by using radio frequency(13.56 MHz) and DC magnetron sputter equipment. Polycrystalline, surface structure, and R-T(Resistivity-Temperature) characteristics of the specimens were measured by X-ray diffraction(D-Max3, Rigaku, Japan), SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy: M.JSM84 01, Japan), and insulation resistance measuring system (Keithley 719), respectively. Thin films characteristics of the thermistor showed different properties depending on the substrate even with the same sputtering condition. The thin film formed on the A1$_{2}$O$_{3}$ substrate showed a good crystalline and a low resistivity at below curie point. However, the thin films prepared on slide glass and Si wafer were amorphous. The thicknesses of the three samples prepared under the same process conditions were 700[.angs.], 637.75[.angs.], and 715[.angs.], respectively.

In this paper, $Ba_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$ thin films were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method. We investigated effect of deposition conditions (especially RF input power) on structural properties of BST thin films. Deposit conditions of BST films were set working gas ratio, Ar:O$_2$= 70 : 30, working pressure 10mTorr, and RF input power 25W, 50W, 75W and 100W. Post-annealing using rapid thermal annealing(RTA) performed at 45$0^{\circ}C$, 55$0^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$, and 75$0^{\circ}C$ in oxigen ambient for 60 sec, respectively. The structural properties of BST films on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate analysed by X-ray diffraction(XRD).).).

We deposited $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) thin-films on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates using RF magnetron sputtering method. A Substrate temperature was fixed at room temperature, while working gas flow ratio and RF Power were changed from 90:10 to 60:40 and 50 W, 75 W respectively. Also after BST thin films were deposited, we performed annealing in oxygen atmosphere using Rapid Thermal Annealing. For capacitor application we deposited Pt using E-beam evaporator of UHV system. In a structural property study through XRD measurement we found that crystallization depends on annealing rather than working gas ratio or and RF Power. Electrical properties showed relatively superior characteristic on the annealed sample with 50 W of RF Power.

New piezoelectric and triboelectric materials for energy harvesting are being widely researched to reduce their processing cost and complexity and to improve their energy conversion efficiency. In this study, BaTiO₃ films of various thickness were deposited on Ni foams by R.F. magnetron sputtering to study the piezoelectric and triboelectric properties of the porous spongy structure materials. Then piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) were prepared with spongy structured BaTiO₃ and PDMS composite. The output performance exhibited a positive dependence on the thickness of the BaTiO₃ film, pushing load, and poling. The PENG output voltage and current were 4.4 V and 0.453 ㎂ at an applied stress of 120 N when poled with a 300 kV/cm electric field. The electrical properties of the fabricated PENG were stable even after 5,000 cycles of durability testing. The triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) were fabricated using spongy structured BaTiO₃ and various polymer films as dielectrics and operated in a vertical contact separation mode. The maximum peak to peak voltage and current of the composite film-based triboelectric nanogenerator were 63.2 V and 6 ㎂, respectively. This study offers new insights into the design and fabrication of high output nanogenerators using spongy structured materials.

We investigated the structural and electrical properties of Ce-doped Ba($Zr_{0.2}Ti_{0.8}$)$O_3$(BCZT) thin films with a mole fraction of x=0.2 and a thickness about 100 nm. BCZT films were prepared on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by a RF magnetron sputtering system. We have measured the thickness profile with Ar/$O_2$ ratio and the surface roughness. It was observed that the oxygen gas, which introduced during the film deposition, have an influence on the roughness of the film and the film roughness was reduced by annealing from 2.33 nm to 2.02 m (RMS at $500^{\circ}C$, Ar:6 scrim, $O_2$:6 sccm). We have found that annealing procedure after top electrode deposit can reduce the dissipation factor.

In this study, $BaTiO_3$ thin films were grown by RF-magnetron sputtering, and the effects of the thin film thickness on the structural characteristics of $BaTiO_3$ thin films were systematically investigated. Instead of the oxide substrates generally used for the growth of $BaTiO_3$ thin films, p-Si substrates which are widely used in the current semiconductor processing, were used in this study in order to pursue high efficiency in device integration processing. For the crystallization of the grown thin films, annealing was carried out in air, and the annealing temperature was varied from $700^{\circ}C$. The changed thickness was within 200 nm~1200 nm. The XRD results showed that the best crystal quality was obtained for ample thicknesses 700 nm~1200 nm. The SEM analysis revealed that Si/$BaTiO_3$ are good quality interface characteristics within 300 nm when observed thickness. And surface roughness observed of $BaTiO_3$ thin films from AFM measurement are good quality surface characteristics within 300 nm. Depth-profiling analysis through GDS (glow discharge spectrometer) showed that the stoichiometric composition could be maintained. The results obtained in this study clearly revealed $BaTiO_3$ thin films grown on a p-Si substrate such as thin film thickness. The optimum thickness was 300 nm, the thin film was found to have the characteristics of thin film with good electrical properties.
