Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 ferroelectric thin films and their compositionally graded thin films were prepared on LNO / Pt / Ti / SiO2 /Si substrates by Sol-gel method. The composition depth profile of a typical up-graded film was determined by using a combination of Auger Electron Spectroscopy (ASE) and Ar Ion Etching. The results confirm that the processing method produces graded composition changes. XRD analysis showed that the graded thin films possessed composite structure of tetragonal and rhombohedral. The dielectric constants of Up-graded and Down-graded thin films were higher than that of each thin film unit. The dielectric constants were 277 and 269 at 10 kHz, respectively. The loss tangents were 0.019 and 0.018 at 10 kHz, respectively. The Hysteresis loops showed that the remanent polarizations of graded thin films were higher than that of each thin film unit, but the coercive fields were smaller. The remanent polarizations of Up-graded and Down-graded thin films were 30.06 and 26.96 μC·cm-2, respectively. The coercive fields were 54.14, 54.23 kV·cm-1, respectively. The pyroelectric coefficients of Up-graded and Down-graded thin films were 4.62, 2.51×10-8 C·cm-2·K-1 at room temperature, respectively. They were higher than that of each thin film unit.展开更多

For the Pt/PZT/Pt and Ru/PZT/Pt ferroelectric capacitors, although with the same ferroelectric film, different top electrode materials incur different properties of PZT capacitors, such as fatigue, leakage, remanent and saturated polarization, except the similar crystal orientations of the PZT film. After 10^10 switch cycles, the remanent polarizations of the Ru/PZT/Pt and Pt/PZT/Pt capacitors decrease to 70% and 84%, respectively. The leakage current density of the latter increases obviously at positive bias after 108 switch cycles, compared with the former. Different materials for the top electrode bring different conditions at the PZT/top electrode interface. The influence of oxygen-vacancy concentration at the PZT/electrode interface and the influence of oxides of the electrode material at the PZT/electrode interface to charge injection can explain the difference of properties of the PZT capacitors with Pt or Ru as the top electrodes.展开更多

The catalytic behavior of these two oxides with the perovskite structure was studied during the reaction of methane oxidation. The pre\|treatment with methane has different effect on the catalytic activities of both the oxides. The methane pre\|treatment has not resulted in the change of the catalytic activity of BSCFO owing to its excellent reversibility of the perovskite structure resulting from the excellent synergistic interaction between Co and Fe in the oxide. However, the substitution with Ti on Fe\|site in the lattice makes the methane pre\|treatment have an obvious influence on the activity of the formed BSCTO oxide.展开更多
