Abstract

Two-layer thin films of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) with lead content in the layers differing by 20% were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering at variable working gas pressure in the system. The phase states, compositions, and dielectric properties of two-layer films obtained with different orders of layer deposition were compared. It is established that the order of deposition significantly influences the conditions of crystallization of the perovskite phase and unipolar properties of PZT films.
