The growth characteristics of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3 (PZT) thin films were investigated for the application of high-density ferroelectric random access memories (FRAM) devices beyond 64Mbit density. The supply control of Pb precursor plays the most critical role in order to achieve a reliable process for PZT thin film deposition. We have monitored the changes in the microstructure and electrical properties of films on increasing the Pb precursor supply into the reaction chamber. Under optimized conditions, $Ir/IrO_2/PZT(100nm)/Ir capacitor shows well-saturated hysteresis loops with a remanent polarization (Pr) of $~28{\mu}C/textrm{cm}^2$ and coercive voltage of 0.8V at 2.5V. Other issues such as step coverage, compositional uniformity and low temperature deposition was discussed in viewpoint of actual device application.

금속 alkoxide를 출발물질로 PZT-PNN 3성분계 압전박막을 제작하여, 박막의 결정성과 전기적 특성을 평가하였다. 박막의 X-RD 분석결과 $550^{\circ}C$ 소결온도에서 결정성이 가장 양호하였다. D-E 이력곡선의 관측 결과 항전계는 28.8 kV/cm, 잔유분극은 $18.3\;{\mu}C/cm^{2}$ 이었다. 박막의 진성파괴전압은 $76.0\;{\sim}\;27.0\;MV/m$이었고, 소결온도가 상승함에 따라 특성이 저하되었다. 박막의 비유전율은 조성비에 따라 (50:40:10)은 406, (50:30:20)은 1084, (45:35:20)은 723, (40:40:20)은 316이었다.

강유전 물질인 Pb/sub 0.99/［(Zr/sub 0/6Sn/sub 0.4/)/0.9/Ti/sub 0.1/］0.98/Nb/sub 0.02/O₃(PNZST) 박막을 10 mole%의 과잉 PbO가 첨가된 타겟을 이용하여 La/sub 0.5/Sr/sub 0.5/CoO₃(LSCO)/Pt/Ti/SiO₂/Si 기판상에 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 증착하였다. 증착된 박막에 대하여 온도와 시간을 다양하게 변화시키면서 급속 열처리(rapid thermal annealing) 한 후, 그 결정성과 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 80 W의 RF 전력, 500 ℃의 기판온도에서 증착한 후, 급속 열처리된 박막이 페로브스카이트상으로 결정화되었으며, 650 ℃, 공기중에서 10초동안 급속 열처리된 박막이 가장 우수한 결정성을 나타내었다. 이러한 박막으로 제작된 PNZST 커패시터는 약 20 μC/㎠정도의 잔류 분극과 약 50 kV/cm 정도의 항전계를 나타내었으며, 2.2×10/sup 9/의 스위칭 후에도 잔류분극의 감소는 10 %미만이었다.

In order to study effects of interface layers between PZT films and electrodes for MFM(Metal-Ferroelectric-Metal) structure capacitors, we have fabricated the capacitors with the Pt/PZT/interface-layer/Pt/$TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ structure. $PT(PbTiO_3)$ interface layers were formed by sol-gel deposition and PbO, $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ thin layers were deposited by reactive sputtering. $TiO_2$ interface layers result in the finest grains of PZT films compared to $PbO_2$ and $ZrO_2$ layers. On the other hand, PT interface layers result in improved morphology of PZT films and do not significantly change ferroelectric properties. It is also observed that seed layers at the middle and top of PZT films do not give significant effects on grain size but the PT seed layer at the interface between the bottom electrode and the PZT films results in the small grain size.

The paraelectric cubic-to-ferroelectric tetragonal phase transition of the thin Pb(Zr, Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) films grown on MgO(001) substrate was investigated in a series of synchrotron x-ray scattering experiments. As the thickness of the film decreases the transition temperature and the amount of the tetragonal distortion were decreased continuously Different from only the c-domains were existent in the thinnest 25nm thick film. Based on this we propose a model for the domain structure of the tetragonal PZT/MgO(100) film that is very different from the ones suggested in literature. We attribute the suppression of the transition to the substrate field that prefers the c-type domains near the interface and suppresses the tetragonal distortion to minimize the film-substrate lattice mismatch.

$Pb(ZrTi)O_3$ thin films were prepared on transparent conducting oxides, through sol-gel processing. The processing variables such as spin velocity, spin time and annealing temperature were investigated using a statistical design of experiments. Dielectric properties were determined through capacitance-voltage measurements and electrical characterizations evaluated using current-voltage characteristics. The leakage currents is determined mainly by annealing. The capacitance and breakdown voltage is found to be independent of the processing variables. The sophisticatedly controlled PZT thin films have been confirmed through microscopic images.

Heterolayered K(Ta,Nb)O₃/Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO₂/Si substrates were prepared by a sol-gel process and spin-coating method. The structural and electrical properties were measured to investigate the possibility of application as an electrocaloric effect device. All specimens exhibited dense and uniform cross-sectional structures without pores, and the average thickness of the specimen coated six times was approximately 394 nm. Curie temperatures were observed at 5℃ or less in type-I and 10℃ in type-II specimens, respectively. Type-II specimens coated 6 times showed a relative dielectric constant of 758 and remanent polarization of 9.71 μC/㎠ at room temperature. The maximum electrocaloric effect occurred between 20 and 25℃, slightly higher than their Curie temperature, and the electrocaloric property (ΔT) of the type-II specimens coated 6 times was approximately 1.2℃ at room temperature.

Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of perovskite materials such as La modified $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$ ceramics and $Pb(Zn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ single crystals were investigated for cryogenic capacitor and actuator applications. Enhanced extrinsic contributions resulted in piezoelectric coefficient (d33) as high as 250 pC/N at 30 K, superior to that of PZT ($d_{33}$ ~ 100 pC/N). This cryogenic property enhancement was associated with retuning the MPB (or cryogenic temperatures. PZN-PT single crystals exhibited dramatic property improvements such as $d_{33}$ > 500 pC/N at 30 K as a result of an engineered domain state.
