Abstract

We have proposed ReMnO3 (Re:rare earth) thin films as a new candidate for nonvolatile memory devices. In this letter, we report on fabrication of (0001) YMnO3 films on (111)MgO, (0001)ZnO:Al/(0001) sapphire, and (111)Pt/(111)MgO using rf magnetron sputtering. We succeeded in obtaining (0001) epitaxial YMnO3 films on (111) MgO and (0001)ZnO:Al/(0001) sapphire substrate, and polycrystalline films on (111)Pt/(111)MgO. The dielectric properties of the epitaxial and polycrystalline YMnO3 films are almost the same. The dielectric permittivities of both films are smaller than those reported for YMnO3 single crystal.
