Abstract

A new chemical solution for the deposition of SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) thin films using crown ether is proposed. Crown ether enhances the solubility of bismuth acetate in acetic acid, which makes a solvent solution possible. A metal acetate-based SBT precursor solution was prepared in acetic acid using 18-crown-6, strontium acetate, bismuth acetate and tantalum ethoxide. (115)-preferentially oriented ferroelectric SBT thin films were formed on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates by spin-coating with the new solution. After post-annealing at 800°C, a hysteresis loop obtained from a 2000Å thick SBT film with Pt electrodes showed a remanent polarization of ∼3μC/cm2 and a coercive voltage of ∼50kV/cm. It was shown from SIMS depth profiles that excess bismuth atoms in the SBT thin film diffused towards the Pt electrodes during post-annealing.
