Abstract: | PZT films were fabricated using various targets of Pb(ZrxTi1 – x)O3 with Zr/Ti ratios of 70/30, 58/42, 52/48, 45/55 and 30/70, and with excess PbO of 20 wt% on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates. The rosette structure was observed in the films derived from the target with a Zr/Ti ratio of 70/30 and disappeared with increasing titanium composition. The observations on surface and cross-sectional microstructure were consistent with a higher perovskite nucleation for the higher Ti content films. The PZT films derived from the target with a Zr/Ti ratio of 45/55 had a polycrystalline columnar microstructure extending throughout the thickness of the film and no pyrochlore phase on the surface was observed. The PZT films derived from the target with a Zr/Ti ratio of 45/55 exhibited better electric properties than those derived from the target with a Zr/Ti ratio of 52/48. |
