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.

To investigate the possibility of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer as the insulator for the Metal-Ferroelectric-Insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) structure, $ZrO_2$ and $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) thin films were deposited on the P-type Si(111) wafer by the R.F. magnetron-sputtering method. According to the process with and without the post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer and SBT thin film, the diffusion amount of Sr, Bi, Ta elements show slight difference through the Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) analysis. From X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) results, we could confirm that the post-annealing process affects the chemical binding condition of the interface between the $ZrO_2$ thin film and the Si substrate. Compared to the MFIS structure without the post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer, memory window value of MFlS structure with post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer were considerably improved. The window memory of the Pt/SBT (260 nm, $800^{\circ}C)/ZrO_2$ (20 nm) structure increases from 0.75 to 2.2 V under the applied voltage of 9 V after post-annealing.

$(1-x)Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.78}K_{0.22})_{0.5}TiO_3-xLaFeO_3$ ceramics were fabricated using a solid state reaction method. The microstructural, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and polarization hysteresis loops (P-E). XRD results indicated that BNKT ceramic crystal structure modified by $LaFeO_3$ was transformed from a ferroelectric tetragonal to a non-polar pesudo-cubic phase with increased $LaFeO_3$ content. The improved piezoelectric properties resulted from the addition of $LaFeO_3$ up to 3 mol%. The $LaFeO_3$ 3mol% sample showed markedly improved piezoelectric and strain behaviors in comparison with pure BNKT ceramic.

The influence of the concentration of precursor solution and the number of solution coatings on the densification of the $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3$ (PZT) thick films was studied. PZT powder and PZT precursor solution were prepared by3 sol-gel method and PZT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method on the alumina substrates. The composition of powder and precursor solution were PZT(70/30) and PZT(30/70), respectively. The PZT precursor solution was spin-coated on the PZT thick films. A concentration of a coating solution was 0.5 to 2.0 mol/L[M] and the number of coating was repeated from 0 to 6. The XRD patterns of all PZT thick films shelved typical perovskite polycrystalline structure. The porosity of the thick films was decreased with increasing the number of coatings and 6-time coated films with 1.5 M showed the dense microstructure and thickness of about $60{\mu}m$. The relative dielectric constant of the PZT thick film was increased with increasing the number of solution coatings and the thick films with 1.5 M, 6-time coated showed the 698. The remanent polarization the 1.5 M and 6-time coated PZT thick films was $38.3{\mu}C/cm^2$.

Photosensitive sol solution을 이용한 self pattern된 박막은 photoresist/dry etching process에 비해 박막의 제조과정이 간단하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 photosensitive sol solution을 이용하여 spin coating법에 의해 $Sr_{0.9}Bi_{2.1}Ta_2O_9$의 조성을 갖는 강유전체 박막을 제조하였으며 출발원료는 $Sr(OC_2H_5)_2,\;Bi(TMHD)_3$와 $Ta(OC_2H_5)_5$를 사용하였다. SBT 박막에 UV 노광시간을 증가시킴에 따라 M-O-M 결합이 생성되면서 metal ${\beta}$-diketonate의 UV 흡수 피크 강도는 감소되었고 SBT 박막에 UV 조사에 따른 용해도 차이가 생기면서 fine patterning을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 UV가 조사된 SBT 박막의 강유전 특성이 UV가 조사되지 않은 것보다 우수하였다.

Bismuth layered structure, Cerium-substituted $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ ($(Bi,Ce)_4Ti_3O_{12}$) thin films were prepared on the $Pt/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by the pulsed laser deposition method. We investigated the Ce-subsitituted effect on the grain orientation and ferroelectric properties. $Ce^{3+}$ ion substitution for $Bi^{3+}$ ion in perovskite layers of BTO decreased the deeree of c-axis orientation and increased the remanent polariation (2Pr). The structure and morphology of the films were characterized using X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy. The $(Bi,Ce)_4Ti_3O_{12}$ (BCT) thin films, which were annealed $700^{\circ}C\;and\;800^{\circ}C$ for 10min and 30min, showed a perovskite phase and dense microstructure. As the thickness of the BCT film was decresed that the ferroelectric properties of the BCT thin films were good.

Microstructure and ferroelectric properties of sol-gel derived PZT(52/48) and PT interlayered PZT(52/48) thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates were investigated. Films were fabricated using Acetylacetone chelated PT and PZT(52/48) sols. PZT(52/48) thin films annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 20 min showed the rosette structure with the size of 1.2~1.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the pyrochlore phse was contained. PT interlayered PZT thin films, which is inserted by PbTiO3 thin layer with the thickness of 130 $\AA$ between PZT thin film and electrode, consisted of a single perovskite phase after annealing above 55$0^{\circ}C$. They exhibited the uniform and columnar grains of 0.1~0.16${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, which are applicable for microelectronic device including non-volatile memory. Typical P-E hysteresis loops could be obtained from PT interlayered PZT thin film at as low as the annealing temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$. Ferroelectric properties of PT interlayered PZT thin films were improved as increasing annealing temperature up to $700^{\circ}C$, and then deteriorated at 75$0^{\circ}C$. PZT(52/48) and PT interlayered PZT(52/48) thin film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 20 min displayed Ps=38.8$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Pr=10.0$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Ec=65.3 kV/cm and Ps=28.5$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Pr=9.8$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Ec=76.1 kV/cm, respectively.

To investigate excess $Na^+$ effect, $Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.78+x}K_{0.22})_{0.5}TiO_3$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.05$) (BNKT) ceramics were prepared by using a conventional solid-state reaction method. The structure and ferroelectric properties of BNKT ceramics were characterized by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and polarization dependence by external electric field. Also, the temperature dependence of dielectric constant and loss were studied. From these results, it was found that appropriate excess $Na^+$ into BNKT ceramics compensate the volatility and induce dense ceramics. The enhanced piezoelectric coefficient (158 pC/N) and depolarization temperature ($202^{\circ}C$) were obtained for the x=0.01 composition.

Phase transition in ferroelectric polymer is very interesting behavior and has been widely studied for real device applications, such as actuators and sensors. Through the phase transition, there is structural change resulting in the change of electrical and optical properties. In this study, we fabricated the Febry-Perot interferometer with the thin film of ferroelectric P(VDF-TrFE) 50/50 mol% copolymer, and thermo-optical properties were investigated. The effective thermo-optical coefficient of P(VDF-TrFE) was obtained as $2.3{\sim}3.8{\times}10^{-4}/K$ in the ferroelectric temperature region ($45^{\circ}C{\sim}65^{\circ}C$) and $6.0{\times}10^{-4}/K$ in the phase transition temperature region ($65^{\circ}C{\sim}85^{\circ}C$), which is a larger than optical silica-fiber and PMMA. The resonance transmission peak of P(VDF-TrFE) with the variation of temperature showed hysteretic variation and the phase transition temperature of the polymer in heating condition was higher than in the cooling condition. The elimination of the hysteretic phase transition of P(VDF-TrFE) is necessary for practical applications of optical devices.
