The (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$(BST) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering technique. The structural properties of the BST thin films were investigated with substrate temperature by XRD, SEM, EDS and AES depth profils. Increasing the substrate temperature, barium multi titanate phases were decreased. The BST thin film had a structure of perovskite type, and had peaks of (100), (200) at the substrate temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$. When the BST thin films were deposited at the substrate temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$, the composition ratio of Ba/sr was 52/48.

$BiFeO_3$ films were hetero-epitaxially grown on $SrTiO_3$ substrate with a various orientation by pulse laser deposition. $BiFeO_3$ films grown on (111) $SrTiO_3$ substrate have a rhombohedral structure, identical to that of single crystals. On the other hand, films grown on (110) or (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate are monoclinically distorted from the rhombohedral structure due to the epitaxial constraint. The easy axis of spontaneous polarization is close to [111] for the variously oriented films. Dramatically enhanced polarization and magnetization have been found for $BiFeO_3$ thin films grown on $SrTiO_3$ substrate comparing to that of $BiFeO_3$ crystals. The results are explained in terms of an epitaxially-induced transition between cycloidal and homogeneous spin states, via magneto-electric interactions.

The Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at 55$0^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering method have individual preferential orientations as a function of composition (X=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) due to the stress relief interactions among the intrinsic compressive stress, thermal tensile stress adn extrinsic compressive stress (compressive stress in case of BaTiO3(Tc=12$0^{\circ}C$) and Ba0.75Sr0.25TiO3(Tc=57$^{\circ}C$)). This behavior also appears on the (BaSr)TiO3 thin films (X=0.5) deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at deposition temperature between 35$0^{\circ}C$ and 55$0^{\circ}C$. The composition of Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at 55$0^{\circ}C$ is close to stoichiometry (1.009~1.089 in A/B ratio), but the compositional deviation from a stoichiometry is larger as SrTiO3 is added. The morphology of Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films is very similar for over all substrate temperatures, and the roughness due to the differences of cluster size is the smallest at X=0.25.

$SrTiO_3$ thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates at low temperatures below $300^{\circ}C$ by r.f. magnetron sputtering. The materials and the electrical properties of the deposited films were investigated with controlling deposition parameters such as substrate temperature(T_s) and positive substrate d.c. bias voltage. Stoichiometric $SrTiO_3$ films were obtained at Ts of $300^{\circ}C$, but Sr content in the film was less than that of a target when Ts was lower than $300^{\circ}C$, resulting in poor electrical properties. By introducing a positive substrate d.c. bias during deposition, the crystallinity and the dielectric properties of the films were markedly improved. 400 nm thick $SrTiO_3$, films deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ with a positive substrate d.c. bias of 20V showed a columnar structure with <211> crystallographic direction and a dielectric constant of 98.

BST(70/30) and BST(50/50) thin films were prepared by Sol-Gel method and studied about the microstructural and dielectric properties with Pt and ITO bottom electrodes. The stock solution was synthesized and spin coated on the Pt/Ti$SiO_2$/Si and Indium Tin Oxide(ITO)/ glass substrate. the coated films were dries at 350$^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes and annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour for the crystallization. The thin films coated on ITO substrate were crystallized easily and the packing density and roughness of surface were better that those of films coated on Pt substrates. In the BST(50/50) composition the structural properties were similar to the BST(70/30) composition and grain size were decreased with increasing the contents of Sr. The dielectric constant was higher in the BST(50/50) composition compared with the BST(70/30) composition. Using the ITO substrate, the dielectric constant was higher than the Pt substrate while the dielectric loss was showed a reverse trend. The dielectric constant with and increase of temperature was decreased slowly.

The structure of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass, bare glass and (100) Si substrates was not changed, but the crystallinity was improved by the polycrystalline ITO layer and (100) Si substrate. The composition of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was nearly stoichiometric ((Ba+Sr)/Ti=1.08~1.09) and very uniform through all deposition process. But as the deposition temperature increases, the interdiffusion between grown thin film and ITO layer and between ITO layer and base glass is severer. $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass substrate was highly transparent. The refractive index($n_f$) of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was 2.138~2.286 as a function of substrate temperature.

We studied the structural and electrical properties of $SrRuO_3$ thin films grown on $SrTiO_3$ (110) substrate. High resolution X-ray diffraction measurement of the grown film showed 1) very sharp peaks for $SrRuO_3$ film with a very narrow rocking curve with FWHM = $0.045^{\circ}$ and 2) coherent growth behavior having the same in-plane lattice constants of the film as those of the substrate. The resisitivity data showed good metallic behavior; ${\rho}$ = 63(205) ${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at 5 (300) K with a residual resistivity ratio of ~3. The observed kink at ${\rho}(T)$ showed that the ferromagnetic transition temperature was ~10 K higher than that of $SrRuO_3$ thin film grown on $SrTiO_3$ (001) substrate. The observed rather lower RRR value could be partially due to a very small amount of Ru vacancy generally observed in $SrRuO_3$ thin films grown by PLD method and is evident in the larger unit-cell volume compared to that of stoichiometric thin film.

The (Ba,Sr)TiO$_3$[BST] thin film were fabricated on the Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering technique. The structural properties of the BST thin films were investigated with deposition time and substrate temperature by XRD. In the case of the BST thin films which has the deposition thin of 20 min, second phases and BST (111) peaks were increased with increasing the temperature of substrate. The capacitance of the BST thin film (deposition time of 20 min.) was decreased with the substrate temperature and was 1500pF with applied voltage of 1V.

$BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered thick films on the $Al_2O_3$ substrate by screen printing method with stacking periodicity. The stacking periodicity of $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayer structure was varied from $(BaTi_O_3)_1/(SrTiO_3)_1$ to $(BaTi_O_3)_3/(SrTiO_3)_3$. The total thickness of the $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ films was about $120{\mu}m$. There was an interdiffusion at the interface of the $BaTiO_3$ and $SrTiO_3$ layers. The dielectric constant of $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered thick films was increased with decreasing stacking periodicity of the $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$. The dielectric constant of the ($(BaTi_O_3)_1/(SrTiO_3)_1$ herterolayered thick films was about 1780.

Ferroelectric $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ and Si(100) substrate by using conductive $SrRuO_3$ films as underlayer, and their ferroelectric and electrical properties were investigated depending on crystal structure and orientation. C-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on well lattice-matched pseudo-cubic $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ substrate, while random-oriented polycrystalline $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on Si(100) substrate. The random-oriented polycrystalline film showed a good ferroelectric hysteresis property with remanent polarization ($P_r$) of $9.4{\mu}C/cm^2$ and coercive field ($E_c$) of 84.9 kV/cm, while the c-axis oriented film showed $P_r=0.64{\mu}C/cm^2$ and $E_c=47kV/cm$ in polarizaion vs electric field curve. The c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed a dielectric constant of about 150 and lower thickness dependence in dielectric constant compared to the random-oriented film. Furthermore, the c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed leakage current lower than that of the polycrystalline film. The difference of ferroelectric properties in two films was explained from the viewpoint of depolarization effect due to orientation of spontaneous polarization and layered crystal structure of bismuth-base ferroelectric oxide.
