The effects of crystallographic orientation on the ferroelectric properties of Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT) thin films grown on (111) and (100)-oriented Pt substrates are investigated. The effects of doping PZT with species X (forming PXZT) thin films (Pb:X:Zr:Ti, 113:3:30:70; X = La, Nb, or Y) using chemical solution deposition were studied. The crystallinity of all PXZT films was almost identical. The remnant polarisation of the un-doped, La-, Nb-, and Y-doped PZT capacitors with Pt(111) bottom electrodes were 133.4, 64.7, 60.2, and 98.4 µC/cm 2 , respectively. In ferroelectric capacitors with Pt(100) bottom electrodes, the remnant polarisations were 185.6, 148.1, 103.1, and 135.7 µC/cm 2 , respectively. The remnant polarisation was larger with Pt(100) than with Pt(111). The initial remnant polarisation of the un-doped PZT capacitors was larger than that of PXZT.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
