Abstract

A review of the history of ferroelectric (FE) thin film synthesis is given covering the period of the 1960's to the present. Early methods, materials and applications are discussed. An assessment of the recent upsurge in activity takes note of current targeted applications, including nonvolatile memory, piezoelectric actuators, capacitors, and electro-optic devices. Focus is placed on similarities and differences in the most common film deposition processes. Comparison of microstructure and composition variation seen in films deposited by sputtering, laser ablation, and solution deposition is made. More detailed understanding of process-microstructure relations is stressed as necessary for film property control. Also discussed are the roles of substrate interactions and interface layers in thin film growth.
