Abstract

Growth of Sr0.6Ba0.4Nb2O6 (SBN60) thin films on Pt-Si substrate has been carried out using Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique by varying the oxygen pressure from 1.33 x 10(-3) mbar to 26.67 x 10(-3) mbar and at a fixed substrate temperature of 800 degrees C. The crystalline behavior of as-deposited films was studied using X-ray diffraction technique indicating the preferential growth along c-axis. The Metal-Ferroelectric-Metal (MFM) structure was used to measure the current-voltage (I-V) and dielectric properties of as-prepared SBN thin film. A large value of dielectric constant of about 503 at 1 MHz was obtained for SBN60 thin film with good ferroelectric polarization-hysteresis loop (P-r = 5.32 mu C/cm(2) and P-max = 9.86 mu C/cm(2). A high value of total stored energy density 4.60 J/cm(2) with an efficiency of 17% efficiently contributes towards its potential application in non-volatile memory devices.
