Abstract
The switching time (ts) for polarization reversal in ferroelectric films of PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3 and La-substituted PbTiO3 has been investigated. The films were prepared by spin-on and metalorganic decomposition followed by processing into ferroelectric capacitors having electrode areas ranging from 9 to 50 000 μm2. Pulse measurements show that under all our experimental conditions ts is instrumentally limited and that therefore the true switching time is smaller than the experimental resolution of 1.8 ns. This very fast polarization reversal can be explained by a nucleation-rate-controlled switching mechanism.
