The effects of post annealing treatments of ferroelectrlclty in PZT(P $b_{1.05}$(Z $r_{0.52}$, $Ti_{0.48}$) $O_3$ thin film deposited on Pt/ $SiO_2$/Si substrate by RF-Magnetron sputtering methode was Investigated. Analyses by RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing) treatments reveled that the crystallization process strongly depend on the healing temperature. The Perovskite structure with strong PZT (101) plan was obtained by RTA treatments at 75$0^{\circ}C$ With increasing RTA temperature of PZI thin films, the coercive field and remanent Polarization decreased, while saturation polarization( $P_{r}$) was decreased. P-E curves of Pt/PZT/Pt capacitor structures demonstrate typical hysteresiss loops. The measure values of $P_{r}$,. $E_{c}$ and dielectric constants by post annealed at 75$0^{\circ}C$ were 38 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 35KV/cm and 974, respectively. Switching polarization versus fatigue characteristic showed 12% degradation up to 10$^{7}$ cycles.s.s.s.s.s.s.

At high temperature, the roles of $NH_4$ and $H_2O$ in $(NH_4)_2Fe(SO_4)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and $(NH_4)_2Zn(SO_4)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ single crystals were investigated using a pulse NMR spectrometer. Temperature was shown to have a significant influence, causing changes in the deformation of $NH_4$ and $H_2O$. From the $^1H$ NMR and $^{14}N$ NMR spectrum, the forms of environment surrounding $^{14}N$ in $NH_4$ groups is more important than the loss of $H_2O$ groups. NMR studies indicate that $NH_4{^+}$ ions in Tutton salts play an important role in the changes of the crystal structure at high temperatures.

The ferroelectric properties of UV irradiated and non-irradiated PZT films prepared via photochemical metal-organic deposition using photosensitive precursors were characterized. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that complete removal of organic groups was possible through UV exposure of the spin-coated PZT precursor films at room temperature. The measured remnant polarization values of UV-irradiated and non-irradiated PZT films after annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ were 29 and $23\;{\mu}C/cm^2$, respectively. The UV irradiation was found to be effective for the enhancement of the <111> growth orientation and ferroelectric property of PZT film and in the direct patterning in the fabrication of micro-patterned systems without dry etching.

BaTiO₃ is one of the ferroelectric materials with excellent dielectric properties such as high dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, and is widely used for the manufacturing of capacitors, piezoelectric converters, microsensors, and ferroelectric memories. Inkjet printing is a technology which uses digital and contactless methods which significantly improves flexibility associated with material and structural design, reducing manufacturing costs. Therefore, the top and bottom electrodes, BaTiO₃ ink, and photocurable resin were all printed by an inkjet to produce a BaTiO₃ capacitor. The properties of the printed thin film were analyzed. It was confirmed that the photocurable resin ink was well-infiltrated between the BaTiO₃ powder particles printed by inkjet. The dielectric properties of the capacitor such as dielectric constant which varies in accordance with frequency, polarization and tunability that changes with voltage, were measured.

$Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ ($B_4T_3$) is a unique ferroelectric material that has a relatively high dielectric constant, high Curie temperature, high breakdown strength, and large spontaneous polarization. As a result this material has been widely studied for many applications, including nonvolatile ferroelectric random memories, microelectronic mechanical systems, and nonlinear-optical devices. Several reports have appeared on the use of Mn dopants to improve the electrical properties of $B_4T_3$ thin films. Mn ions have frequently been used for this purpose in thin films and multilayer capacitors in situations where intrinsic oxygen vacancies are the major defects. However, no systematic study of the optical properties of $B_4T_3$ films has appeared to date. Here, we report optical data for these films, determined by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). We also report the effects of thermal annealing and Mn doping on the optical properties. The SE data were analyzed using a multilayer model that is consistent with the original sample structure, specifically surface roughness/$B_4T_3$ film/Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/c-Si). The data are well described by the Tauc-Lorentz dispersion function, which can therefore be used to model the optical properties of these materials. Parameters for reconstructing the dielectric functions of these films are also reported. The SE data show that thermal annealing crystallizes $B_4T_3$ films, as confirmed by the appearance of $B_4T_3$ peaks in X-ray diffraction patterns. The bandgap of $B_4T_3$ red-shifts with increasing Mn concentration. We interpret this as evidence of the existence deep levels generated by the Mn transition-metal d states. These results will be useful in a number of contexts, including more detailed studies of the optical properties of these materials for engineering high-speed devices.

$(Pb_{0.98}La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35})O_3$ (PLZT) thin films with $TiO_2$ buffer layers were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates by an R.F. magnetron sputtering method in order to improve the ferroelectric characteristics of the films. And the ferroelectric properties and crystallinities of the PLZT thin films were investigated in terms of the effects of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ buffer layers between a platinum bottom electrode and PLZT thin film. The ferroelectric properties of the PLZT thin films improved as increasing of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ layers, thereby reaching their maximum at $600^{\circ}C$.

The $Pb(Zr_{0.4}Ti_{0.6})O_3/Pb(Zr_{0.6}Ti_{0.4})O_3$ [PZT(4060)/(6040)] multilayered thin films were deposited by RF Sputtering method on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate. This procedure was repeated several times to form PZT(4060)/(6040) heterolayerd thin films. The effects on the structural and dielectric properties of PZT multilayered thin films were investigated. The MFM(Metal Ferroelectric Metal) type capacitors were made using the PZT(4060)/(6040) multilayered thin films deposited with optimum deposition condition. An enhanced dielectric property was observed in the PZT(4060)/(6040) multilayered thin films. The relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss at 100Hz of the PZT(4060)/(6040)-5 multilayered thin films were about 1106 and 0.016, respectively.

Barium titanate ($BaTiO_3$) nanoparticle is one of the most promising materials for future multi-layer ceramic capacitor and ferroelectric random access memory. It is well known that electrical property of nanoparticles depends on the atomistic structure. Although surface may possibly have an impact on the atomistic structure, reconstructed structure at the surface has not been widely investigated. In the present study, Ba-ion position near surface in a $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticle has been quantitatively characterized by scanning transmission electron microscopy. It was found that some Ba ions at the surface were greatly displaced in non-uniform directions.
