Electrical Properties of Thin Films of Amorphous ABO3-Type Materials

Abstract
Thin films of amorphous PbTiO3 and LiNbO3 were prepared by RF-sputtering deposition on cooled substrates and their electrical properties were studied. The amorphous LiNbO3 film showed high dielectric constant (ε>103) in high temperature region for low frequency measurement. The temperature dependence of dielectric constant can be explained by Debye-type dielectric relaxation. The amorphous PbTiO3 film was certified to contain Pb crystallites and exhibit high surface electrical conductivity (σs\gtrsim10 (Ω· cm)-1). This phenomena disappeared after an annealing above 220°C.
