새로운 저온 열처리 공정으로 제조된 SrBi 2 Ta 2 O 9 박막의 결정성 및 전기적 특성
The Crystallinity and Electrical Properties of SrBi 2 Ta 2 O 9 Thin Films Fabricated by New Low Temperature Annealing
E-mail:
We studied growth and characterization of SrBi 2 Ta 2 O 9 (SBT) thin films fabricated by low temperature process under vacuum and/or oxygen ambient. A metal organic decomposition (MOD) method based on a spin-on technique and annealing process using a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) method was used to prepare the SBT films. The crystallinity of a ferroelectric phase of SBT thin films is related to the oxygen partial pressure during RTA process. Under an oxygen partial pressure higher than 30 Torr, the crystallization temperature inducing the ferroelectric SBT phase can be lowered to 650 ? C . Those films annealed at 650 ? C in vacuum and oxygen ambient showed good ferroelectric properties, that is, the memory window of 0.5~0.9 V at applied voltage of 3~7 V and the leakage current density of 1.80{\times}10^{-8}A/ \textrm{cm}^2atanappliedvoltageof5V.IncomparisonwiththeSBTthinfilmspreparedat80 0^{\circ}Cin O_2ambientbyfurnaceannealingprocess,theSBTthinfilmspreparedat 650^{\circ}C$ in vacuum and oxygen ambient using the RTA process showed a good crystallization and electrical properties which would be able to apply to the virtul device fabrication precess.
