PMMA thin films were deposited by sol gel spin coating method on ITO substrates. Toluene was used as the solvent to dissolve the PMMA powder. The PMMA concentration was varied from 30 ~ 120 mg. The dielectric properties were measured at frequency of 0 ~ 100 kHz. The dielectric permittivity was in the range of 7.3 to 7.5 which decreased as the PMMA concentration increased. The dielectric loss is in the range of 0.01 ~ –0.01. All samples show dielectric characteristics which have dielectric loss is less than 0.05. The optical properties for thin films were measured at room temperature across 200 ~ 1000 nm wavelength region. All samples are highly transparent. The energy band gaps are in the range of 3.6 eV to 3.9 eV when the PMMA concentration increased. The morphologies of the samples show that all samples are uniform and the surface roughness increased as the concentration increased. From this study, it is known that, the dielectric, optical, and morphology properties were influenced by the amount of PMMA concentration in the solution.

Abstract-High dielectric constant, low porosity and nano-dimension particle of single layer magnesium oxide, MgO and multilayer ZnO/MgO were synthesized at different MgO solution molar concentration by the simple chemical solution technique. The MgO molar concentration was found to alter the properties of both single and multilayer films. Observation reveals the surface morphology change form uniform to agglomerate and porous structure with corresponding increase in molar concentration. The increment in particle size and the formation of agglomerated particle were observed by FESEM (JEOL JSM-J600F). The best prepared dielectric film for both single and multilayer is the film that deposited using 0.4 molar concentration MgO solution due to its high dielectric constant, uniform film, and the particle is in nanometer dimension with nonorod like structure.
