Mechanisms of polarization switching and fatigue in (Pb, La)(Zr, Ti)O-3 (PLZT) films are studied by comparative analysis of degradation and leakage conduction of PLZT capacitors with Pt, SrRuO3 (SRO), and layered Pt/SRO (80/5 nm) electrodes. It is found th ...
The ac field dependence of dielectric and piezoelectric response of sol-gel derived Pb(Zr,Ti)O(3)thin films is presented. The nonlinear response of dielectric polarisation and piezoelectrically induced strain at sub-switching fields was studied in terms of ...
The effective piezoelectric transverse coefficient e(31,f) was measured on various lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) and aluminum nitride thin films. The measurement set-up is based on the collection of the electric charges created by the forced deflection of ...
The effects of donor (Nb, Ta) and acceptor (Na, Mg, Fe) dopants on the crystallization mechanism of PZT thin films were investigated. The parameters which control microstructure development were found to be different for donors and accepters. Lead stoichio ...
Having a composition closed to the morphotropic phase boundary, PZT films of 14 mu m thickness with a porosity less than 7% were prepared by the double print double firing method. At room temperature the dielectric constant, remanent polarization and coerc ...
The integration of piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 thin films on silicon substrates for ultrasonic motor applications is reviewed. With suitable buffer and bottom electrode layers the problems due to high processing temperatures in oxygen ambient can be handled ...
The shape of the grains and the granulometry distribution of the PZT powder are the main factor influencing the densification. In addition, we shown that a higher concentration of PZT powder in the ink with a right rheology of the ink improves the density ...
In situ reactively sputter deposited, 300-nm-thick Pb(Zrx,Ti1-x)O3 thin films were investigated as a function of composition, texture, and different electrodes (Pt,RuO2). X-ray diffraction analysis, ferroelectric, dielectric, and piezoelectric measurements ...
The effect of acceptor (Na, Mg, Fe) and donor (Nb,Ta) dopants on the switching properties of Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O-3 (PZT) thin films with Pt electrodes was investigated for broad dopant concentration ranges. The effect of dopants on endurance was found to be ...
The effective piezoelectric coefficient e(31) has been measured on sol-gel processed Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O-3 thin films with Zr concentrations ranging from 45 to 60%. The largest value was observed at 45% Zr, although dielectric constant and effective d(33) peak a ...
