In the present study, piezoelectric, conductivity and dielectric measurements have been performed on virgin and fatigued ferroelectric PZT thin films prepared by spin-on sol-gel deposition process on Si/SiO2/Ti/Pt substrates. By fatiguing, the polarisation ...
Through the use of relations analogous to that of the Rayleigh law, it is demonstrated that the ac electric field dependence of the permittivity of ferroelectric thin films can be described. It is further shown that both reversible and irreversible compone ...
Poling of calcium and zirconium modified lead titanate pyroelelectric thin films has been studied, Poling temperature and electrical field were optimized to achieve high figure of merits. It was found that thermal activation is important to obtain highly p ...
The fatigued state of Pt-PZT-Pt ferroelectric capacitors (FECAP) was investigated by means of piezoelectric coefficient, polarisation charge and permittivity measurements. The suppression of switching polarisation P-r(s) appears to be the result of freezin ...
The scenarios of the size effects which may account for the difference in the switching properties of ferroelectric thin films and bulk ferroelectrics are critically reviewed. It is shown that the two often used models (the Janovec-Kay-Dunn surface nucleat ...
Unlike Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 and similar ferroelectric relaxors which never truly become ferroelectric at zero-field, disordered Pb(Sc1/2Ta1/2)O-3 (PST) is a relaxer that spontaneously transforms into a ferroelectric phase. The control of the degree of order o ...
The switching of the sandwich structure ''ferroelectric+thin dielectric layer'' is theoretically studied. The behavior of the remanent polarization, P-r, coercive field, E(c), maximal polarization on the loop, P-s, and the slope of the hysteresis loop at E ...
Pyroelectric PbTiO3 thin films devices with two temperature compensating elements on a SiO2/Si3N4 membranes have been fabricated and characterized. The measured voltage responsivity as a function of radiation modulation frequency has been compared to finit ...
Dielectric properties of perovskites are studied both to gain insight into fundamental aspects of the freezing of polar disorder, and to investigate their technological potential. The dynamics of freezing of polar disorder is investigated in single crystal ...
The piezoelectric properties of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films deposited on thick silicon substrates and thin silicon membranes were investigated using optical interferometry. The effect of the geometrical constraints and clamping effects on the p ...
