Thin ferroelectric Ba x Sr 1 -x TiO 3 (BST) layers have been grown for the first time on semi-insulating silicon carbide substrates by RF magnetron sputtering of a ceramic target without using buffer sublayers. Results of investigation of the structure of obtained BST films and the electrical properties of related planar capacitors are presented. The obtained structures are characterized by high nonlinearity and low dielectric losses at microwave frequencies.
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.
