PbTiO(3) films from metalloorganic precursors.
Ferroelectric PbTiO(3) films 0.5- to 2.0-mum thick were prepared by the metalloorganic decomposition (MOD) process using multilayer spinning with firing temperatures of 490-630 degrees C. The temperature dependence of the dielectric constant was found to be a function of the c/a ratio, which could be modified by control of either the single-layer thickness or the strength of the electric field during film preparation near the Curie temperature. The films were near theoretical density and defect-free over 2 cmx2 cm areas.
