摘要:
Ferroelectric thin films of barium sodium niobate, Ba2NaNb5O15 (BNN), were prepared on Pt substrates by pulsed laser ablation at O-2 gas pressures of 0.01 and 0.1 Torr. We examined the effect of laser energy density on the fabrication of BNN thin films. The laser energy density was changed from 1.67 J/cm(2) to 5.0 J/cm(2). On increasing laser energy density, the chemical composition of thin films approached the BNN stoichiometry. Crystallinity of BNN thin films fabricated at higher laser energy densities developed a tendency to orient along the c-axis. Thin films of BNN deposited at an O-2 gas pressure of 0.1 Torr and a laser energy density of 5.0 J/cm(2) have a stoichiometoric composition and a prominent c-axis orientation with a remanent plarization P-r of 0.8 mu C/cm(2) and a coercive field E-c of 24.0 kV/cm at room temperature.
