摘要
We previously demonstrated that TiOx/Al2O3 nanolaminates (TAO NL) exhibit abnormally high-dielectric constant k (800-1000), due to Maxwell-Wagner polarization, via charge accumulation at insulating Al2O3/semiconducting TiOx interfaces. Here, we report TAO NL dielectric properties related to TiOx phase change in TiOx (0.9 nm)/Al2O3 (0.1 nm) NL. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy shows amorphous TiOx phase change to crystalline anatase TiO2 due to free-energy minimization. The phase change induce reduction in leakage current and dielectric loss (J = 10(-2) to 10(-4) A/cm(2), tan delta = 10 to 10(-1)), still with k similar to 600 up to MHz, compared to amorphous TAO NLs.
