The domain nucleation and growth during the switching process in ferroelectric PZT thin film capacitors was observed using atomic force microscope (AFM) technique combined with a lock-in amplifier. The measured phase difference between the tip vibration si ...
Highly textured PZT(111), PZT(001/100) and random PZT films have been grown on Pt and RuO2 bottom electrodes by means of an in-situ, multimagnetron reactive sputtering process with three metal targets (Pb, Zr, Ti). The orientation was varied with the botto ...
Transient photocurrents are investigated in ferroelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films illuminated by laser pulses in the spectral range of 340-380 nm. At low electric fields, the photocurrent is sensitive to the ferroelectric polarization state and ...
The influence of the polarization of the RuO2/YSZ interface on the electrochem. promotion of RuO2 catalysts was studied by temp. programmed desorption and high temp. cyclic voltammetry measurements. The desorption activation energy of adsorbed oxygen decre ...
Rhombohedral Pb(Zr0.70Ti0.30)O-3 thin films of four different well-defined textures, namely, (100), (111), bimodal (110)/(111), and (100)/(111), were prepared by a sol-gel method. The films were characterized in terms of grain size, presence of second phas ...
The effects of niobium doping on the hysteresis parameters of sol-gel Pb-1.1-x/2(Zr0.53Ti0.47)(1-x)NbxO3 (0 < x < 0.05) have been reported fbr two sets of films with analogous grain size and degree of (111) texture but with different surface microstructure ...
(Al,Ga)N/GaN quantum wells have been studied by temperature-dependent luminescence and reflectivity. The samples were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (0001) sapphire substrates, and well widths were varied from 3 to 15 monolayers (ML's) with a 2-ML incr ...
The influence of ultraviolet (UV) illumination on piezoelectric properties is investigated in lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films. It is found that the poling procedure is more effective when the film is exposed to a broadband UV light in the presence ...
The size, shape, and polarization orientation of fatigued areas formed during the suppression of the switchable polarization (P-r(s)) (fatigue) in Ft-FZT-Pt ferroelectric capacitors (FECAPs), were observed by means of atomic force microscopy and by imaging ...
The switching, fatigue and rejuvenation phenomena of ferroelectric PZT thin films with differently processed electrode-PZT interfaces and of different thicknesses have been investigated. The ferroelectric contribution to the switching parameters has been i ...
