We have studied the effects of La concentration on the optical and electrical properties of lead lanthanum titanate (PLT) thin films by using sol-gel method. Both the optical and electrical properties are greatly affected by the La concentration. The refreactiv eindices of the films varied from 2.23 to 1.93 with varying La concentration in the range from 15 to 33 mol%. The dielectric constants of the films vary form 340 to 870 with varying La concentration in the range form 15 to 33 mol%. Hysteresis loop becomes slimmer with the increase of La concentration form 15 to 28mol% and little fatter again with the increase of La concentration form 28 to 33 mol%. Among the films investigated in this research, PLT(28) thin film shows the best dielectric properties for the application to the dielectrics of ULSI DRAM's. At the frequency of 100Hz, the dielectric constant and the loss tangent of PLT(28) thin films are 940 and 0.08 respectively. Its leakage current density at 1.5${\times}10^{5}$V/cm is 1${\times}10^{-6}A/cm^{2}$. The comparision between the simulated and the experimental curves for the switching transient characteristics shows that PLT (28) thin films behaves like normal dielectrics.

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.

La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ precursor solution were prepared by a sol-gel method. La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ thin films were fabricated by a spin-coating method on a Pt/Ti/SiO₂/Si substrate. Structural and electrical properties with the variation of sintering temperature were measured. All specimens exhibited a polycrystalline orthorhombic crystal structure, and the average thickness of the specimens coated 6 times decreased from about 427 nm to 383 nm as the sintering temperature increased from 740℃ to 830℃. Electrical resistance decreased as the sintering temperature increased. In the La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ thin films sintered at 830℃, electrical resistivity, TCR, B-value, and activation energy were 0.0374 mΩ·cm, 0.316%/℃, 296 K and 0.023 eV, respectively.
