Abstract

Pb ( Zr , Ti ) O 3 (PZT)-based ternary compound thin films, 0.06PMnN-0.94PZT(50/50) (PMnN-PZT), are deposited on Si-based heterostructures by rf magnetron sputtering system. The intrinsic PZT(50/50) thin films are also deposited on the same kind of substrates for comparison. The PMnN-PZT thin films show the similar polycrystalline structures as those of PZT with highly (111) oriented perovskite phase. The PMnN-PZT thin films show excellent piezoelectricity and ferroelectricity which are distinctly better than those of PZT thin films prepared with the same deposition conditions. Besides, the cantilevers of PMnN-PZT thin films on the heterostructure substrates also exhibit higher sensitivities than the PZT thin film cantilevers.
