    Recovery process of degraded ferroelectric properties in the forming-gas-annealed Pt/Bi4−xLaxTi3O12/Pt capacitor

    by Uong Chon, Hyun M. Jang

    The recovery of ferroelectric properties in the forming-gas-annealed Pt/Bi4−xLaxTi3O12/Pt (Pt/BLT/Pt) capacitor was studied by examining changes in ferroelectric responses, phase evolution, and spatial distributions of relevant species during the recovery annealing. The degraded ferroelectric properties were practically restored to their original values after the recovery annealing at 600 °C for 10 min in an O2 atmosphere. The following recovery process has been delineated from the present study: (i) the removal of impregnated protons from the degraded capacitor due to the chemical potential difference of protons between the forming-gas-annealed capacitor and the contacting atmosphere, and (ii) the restoration of perovskite BLT phase with the help of replenishment of the Bi and oxygen losses via diffusion from the neighboring intact region to the Bi-depleted columnar region located beneath the top Pt electrode.


  • Formation and characteristics of highly c-axis-oriented Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 thin films on SiO2/Si(100) and Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates

    by Uong Chon, Hyun M. Jang, Sun-Hwa Lee, Gyu-Chul Yi

    Highly c-axis-oriented Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 (BLT) films with a homogeneous in-plane orientation were successfully grown on SiO2/Si(100) and Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates by a sol-coating route. The substitution of lanthanum ions for bismuth ions in the layered perovskite suppressed the formation of pyrochlore phase and enhanced the c-axis-oriented growth. The c-axis-oriented BLT film fabricated on a Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrate showed fatigue-free characteristics with a large remanent polarization of 26–28 μC/cm2 and the coercive field of 50–75 kV/cm. These features significantly enhance the potential value of the BLT film for the applications to high-density ferroelectric random-access memories devices. In addition, the c-axis-oriented BLT film, with a homogeneous in-plane orientation on an amorphous surface, can be used as a suitable template material for applications to various electro-magneto-optic devices.


  • Fatigue-free behavior of highly oriented Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 thin films grown on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) by metalorganic solution decomposition

    by Uong Chon, Gyu-Chul Yi, Hyun M. Jang

    Fatigue-free and highly c-axis oriented Bi 3.25 La 0.75 Ti 3 O 12 (BLT) thin films were grown on Pt/Ti/SiO 2 /Si(100) substrates using metalorganic solution decomposition. Filmsannealed above 500 °C were characterized by strong c-axis preferential growth with an in-plane alignment of grains. The BLT filmcapacitors with a Pt top electrode showed excellent ferroelectric properties. The remanent polarization (2P r ) and the coercive field (E c ) were in the range of 26–28 μC/cm2and 50–75 kV/cm, respectively. More importantly, the BLT capacitors did not show any significant fatigue up to 3.5×10 10 read/write switching cycles at a frequency of 1 MHz.
