Abstract
The in-plane dielectric and ferroelectric properties of c-axis oriented epitaxial strontium bismuth tantalate (SBT) thin films were investigated by interdigital surface electrode measurement. The four types of SBT thin films, which have various Sr∕Bi atomic ratios, were prepared on MgO substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The dielectric properties at kilohertz and megahertz frequencies were studied from 20to870K. Above room temperature, all the films show the phase transition. Sr0.99Bi1.61Ta2O9, Sr0.97Bi2.10Ta2O9, and Sr0.88Bi1.79Ta2O9 thin films show frequency dispersions near phase transition temperature. At low temperatures, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of Sr0.97Bi2.10Ta2O9 and Sr0.83Bi2.08Ta2O9 thin films were investigated. Both dielectric constant and remanent polarization show a tendency to decrease as temperature decreases, and the rapid change, which may indicate a phase transition, was observed in Sr0.97Bi2.10Ta2O9 near 80K.
