Abstract
Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃[PZT] thin films were prepared on a highly (100) oriented LaNiO₃[LNO] and a randomly oriented LNO by sol-gel process. The PZT thin films on a highly (100) oriented LNO show a high (100) crystal orientation (F=100 ％), those on a randomly oriented LNO show a random crystal orientation (F=60 ％). All the PZT layer have a flat and dense microstructure with large columnar grains and their grain size are 25 nm. In the ferroelectric curves at electric field of 40 kV/cm, a highly (100) oriented PZT/LNO samples show coercive field, E/sub c/=10 kV/cm and remanent polarization, P/sub r/=14.5 μC/㎠, while a randomly oriented PZT/LNO sample show E/sub c/=10 kV/cm and P/sub r/=5.4 μC/㎠.
