“…[13,14] Nb 2 O 5 is also a frequently used constituent of multicomponent oxides and solid solutions such as LiNbO 3 , [15] (Nb 1Àx Ta x ) 2 O 5 , [16] BaTi 1þ2n Nb 4 O 13þ4n , [17] [18] and dopant in various oxides such as ZrO 2 , [19] SnO 2 , [20] (Zr 0.8 Sn 0.2 )TiO 4 , [21,22] Pb(Zr 0.52 Ti 0.48 )O 3 , [23,24] and ZrO 2 Á 3Y 2 O 3 . [25] Methods used for depositing Nb 2 O 5 thin films include, among others, sputtering, [4][5][6][7]10,11,13] sol-gel, [14] and various CVD methods, [3,5,12,15] like ALD. [2,26] ALD, previously known as atomic layer epitaxy (ALE), is an advanced CVD technique where the precursors are alternately pulsed into the reactor separated by purging with inert carrier gas.…”
