Abstract

We have deposited SrTiO3 thin films on Nb-doped SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition at temperatures of up to 1400°C. Reflection high energy electron diffraction was used to monitor the film growth mode at various temperatures and it was shown that growth proceeded in the step-flow mode at above 900°C. Capacitors were formed by evaporating platinum pads on the film surface and gold pads on the substrate. Films grown in the step-flow mode showed consistently higher dielectric constants below 200 K than films grown in the layer-by-layer mode. Films with the highest dielectric constant (e) were obtained using a stoichiometric ablation target at an oxygen pressure of 10SrTiO3 −6SrTiO3 Torr.
