Abstract
Ferroelectric (Ba0.6Sr0.4)TiO3 (BST) thin films have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition onto single-crystal Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) substrates with/without a MgO buffer layer. The structure and microwave properties of the BST films have been investigated as a function of substrate orientation and O2 deposition pressures (50–800 mTorr). The crystallographic orientation of BST film varies with the deposition conditions. The dielectric properties of the ferroelectric were measured using interdigitated capacitors deposited on top of the BST film. BST films exhibit high tunability (20–40%) and high dielectric Q=1/cosδ (30–50) with a dc bias field of 67 kV/cm at 10 GHz. A coplanar waveguide transmission line was fabricated from a (001)-oriented BST film on (111)YIG which exhibited a 17° differential phase shift with an applied dc bias field of 21 kV/cm (10 GHz). An equivalent differential phase shift was achieved with a magnetic field of 160 Gauss.
