Ferroelectric properties of $SrBi_2TaNbO_9$ (SBTN) thin films were changed by the amount of Bi content in SBTN. We suggested that the addition of excess Bi into the films could be accomplished by heat-treating $SBTN/Bi_2O_3/SBTN$ heterostructure fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering method. Excess Bi composition was controlled by the thickness of the sandwiched $Bi_2O_3$ from 0 to $400\;\AA$. When the SBTN thin films were inserted by $400\;{\AA}\;Bi_2O_3$ layer, $Bi_2Pt$ phase was formed as a second phase in SBTN films, resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. The onset temperature for hysteresis loop can be reduced by heat treating $SBTN/Bi_2O_3/SBTN$ heterostructure. The films with $SBTN/Bi_2O_3(100\;{\AA})/SBTN$ hetero-structure followed by annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ for 30 min show 2Pr and Ec of $5.66\;{\mu}C/\textrm{cm}^2$ and 54 kV/cm, respectively.

Ferroelectric properties of{{{{ { { { {SrBi }_{2 }Ta }_{2-x }Nb }_{x }O }_{9 } }} (SBIN) thin films were affected by the amount of Bi content in SBTN. The addition of Bi into the SBTN films could be accomplished by heat treating SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN het-erostructures fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering method. The variation of Bi content was controlled by changing the thickness of the sandwiched Bi2O3 in SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN heterostructure from 50 to 400$\AA$. As changing the thickness of the sandwiched Bi2O3 in Bi2O3 films was increased from 0 to 100$\AA$ the grain grew faster and the ferroelectric pro-perties were improved. On the other hand when the thickness of Bi2O3 films was thicker than 150$\AA$ the fer-roelectric properties were deteriorated Especially for SBTN thin films inserted by 400$\AA$ Bi2O3 layer a Bi2Phase appeared as a second phase resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. The maximum remanent po-larization (2Pr) and coercive field(Ec) were obtained for the SBTN/Bi2O3/(100$\AA$)/SBTN thin films. In this case 2Pr and Ec were 14.75 $\mu$C/cm2 and 53.4kV/cm at an applied voltage of 3V respectively.

Sol-gel 법으로 200 nm 정도의 두께를 가진 강유전성 S $r_{0.9}$B $i_{2.1}$T $a_{1.8}$ N $b_{0.2}$ 박막을 Pt/Ti $O_2$/ $SiO_2$/Si 기판 위에 증착하였다. 본 실험에서는 Sr(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_2$, Bi(TMHD)$_3$, Ta(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_{5}$ 그리고, Nb(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_{5}$를 출발 물질로 사용하였으며 2-methoxyethanol을 용매로 사용하였다. UV 노광과 급속열처리가 SBTN 박막의 구조와 전기적 특성에 어떤 영향을 주는 가를 연구하였다. UV 노광과 급속열처리를 한 후에 $650^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 SBTN 박막의 3V와 5V 인가 전압하에서의 잔류분극 값은 각각 8.49와 11.94 $\mu$C/$ extrm{cm}^2$이었다.

The ferroelectric SBT thin films as a material of capacitors for non-volatile FRAMs have some problems that its remanent polarization value is relatively low and the crystallization temperature is quite high abovc 80$0^{\circ}C$. Therefore, in this paper, SBTN solution with S $r_{0.9}$B $i_{2.1}$T $a_{1.8}$N $b_{0.2}$$O_{9}$ composition was synthesized by sol-gel method. Sr(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_2$, Bi(TMHD)$_3$, Ta(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_{5}$and Nb(O $C_2$ $H_{5}$)$_{5}$ were used as precursors, which were dissolved in 2-methoxyethanol. SBTN thin films with 200 nm thickness were deposited on Pt/Ti $O_2$/ $SiO_2$/Si substrates by spin-coating. UV-irradiation in a power of 200 W for 10 min and rapid thermal annealing in a 5-Torr-oxygen ambient at 76$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec were used to promote crystallization. The films were well crystallized and fine-grained after annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ in oxygen ambient. The electrical characteristics of 2Pr=11.94 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Ps＋/Pr＋=0.54 at the applied voltage of 5 V were obtained for a 200-nm-thick SBTN films. This results show that 2Pr values of the UV irradiated and rapid thermal annealed SBTN thin films at the applied voltage of 5 V were about 57% higher than those of no additional processed SBTN thin films. thin films.lms.s.s.

Polycrystalline SBTN ferroelectric thin films were prepared by sol-gel method with various Nb mole ratios on Pt/ $SiO_2$/Si (100) substrates. The films were annealed at different temperatures and characterized in terms of phase and microstructure. Relatively a well saturated hysteresis pattern was obtained at x =0.2 in S $r_{0.8}$B $i_{2.3}$(T $a_{1-x}$ N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{9+}$$\alpha$/ thin films. At an applied voltage of 5V, the dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) and dissipation factor (tan $\delta$) of typical S $r_{0.8}$B $i_{2.3}$(T $a_{1-x}$ N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{9+}$$\alpha$/ thin film (x=0.2) were about 236.2 and 0.034. Measured remanent polarization (2Pr) and coercive field (Ec) were 4.28C/c $m_2$, and 38.88kv/cm respectively. No fatigue was observed up to 6$\times$10$_{10}$ switching cycles at 5V and the normalized polarization reduced by a factor of only 4%.%. 4%.%. 4%.%.%.%.%.
