PZT Thin Films by Radio Frequency Magnetron Sputtering

  • Chapter
Book cover Applications of Photonic Technology 2

Abstract

Pb(ZrxT1-x)O3 (or PZT) thin films have been deposited on [110] LiTaO3 single crystal substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering using a ceramic target with excess PbO. Highly oriented [101] PZT thin films were obtained when the as-deposited thin films were annealed at 650°C for 60 min in an oxygen ambient, and a well-developed grain structure was formed. The optical properties of these thin films were also studied.
