Abstract

Ferroelectric thin films of tungsten bronze lead barium niobáte (PBN) were fabricated by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Oriented growths of the thin films were observed along (001) in tetragonal phase and along (002) in orthorhombic phase. Excess amount of PbO (6 wt %) in the PBN targets were used to compensate Pb evaporation during sputtering deposition. Ferroelectric properties were investigated as a function of annealing temperatures. The thin film with high quality was annealed at 650 °C, while its remnant polarization (Pr) and coercive field (Ec) were equal to 47.9 μC/cm2 and 5.2 kV/cm, respectively.
