摘要
Pure BiFeO3 (BFO) and rare earth (RE) ion codoped (Bi0.9RE0.1)(Fe0.975Mn0.025)O-3 (RE=Sm, Tb and Ho, denoted by BSFM, BTFM and BHFM) thin films were prepared on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates by using a chemical solution deposition method. Formations of distorted rhombohedral perovskite structure for the thin films were confirmed by using an X-ray diffraction and a Raman scattering analysis. Microstructural features for the thin films were examined by using a scanning electron microscopic analysis. Among the thin films, the lowest leakage current density of 1.22x10(-6) A/cm(2) (at 100 kV/cm), large remnant polarization (2Pr) of 72.4 mu C/cm(2) and low coercive field (2E(c)) of 689 kV/cm (at 980 kV/cm) were measured for the BTFM thin film.
