Abstract

PZT (PbxZr0.4Ti0.6O3) thin filmswere prepared by reactive co-sputtering and annealed by RTA (Rapid ThermalAnnealing). Transformation kinetics and effect of Pb content on thetransformation were intensively studied using EMA (Effective MediumApproximation). It has been found that depending on Pb content as well asRTA temperature, the crystal structure of PZT films changed greatly. Itturned out that the transformation temperature for the perovskite phase canbe lowered and the width of transition temperature region was reduced byincreasing Pb content in the films. Dependence of transformation path on thePb content has been studied.
