“…Ferroelectric thin films, such as ͑Ba, Sr͒TiO 3 ͑BST͒, are being widely investigated for applications in integrated dynamic random access memory cells, decoupling capacitors, and microwave tunable devices, including tunable mixers, delay lines, filters, and phase shifters for steerable antennas. [1][2][3] As Pb͑Zr, Ti͒O 3 for piezoelectric micro/ nanosystems applications, 4 BST has become the leading materials system for these devices due to its high dielectric response and its tunability near the ferroelectric phase transformation temperature. The transition temperature ͑Tc͒ can be controlled via adjusting composition; for example, the Tc of bulk Ba 0.60 Sr0 0.40 TiO 3 ͑60/40͒ is just below room temperature.…”
