Abstract
( K 0.5 Na 0.5 ) NbO 3 (KNN)-based ferroelectric thin films were prepared by a chemical solution approach modified with both diethanolamine (DEA) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as the stabilizing agents. The obtained KNN thin films exhibited a remarkably low leakage current and well-saturated polarization hysteresis loop. The effective piezoelectric strain coefficient d33 and voltage coefficient g33 under the clamping of the substrate were improved to 74.0 pm/V and 28.3 mm V/N, respectively. The reason for the superior properties was found that the addition of EDTA and DEA was effective in suppressing the volatilization of K and Na at moderate temperature before the crystallization.
