Wb. Stannard et al., RECOIL SPECTROMETRY AND RBS STUDIES OF STRONTIUM BISMUTH TANTALATE FILMS ON PT TI ELECTRODES/, Integrated ferroelectrics, 12(2-4), 1996, pp. 177-184
Heavy Ion Elastic Recoil Detection Spectrometry and Rutherford Backsca
ttering Analysis have been used to analyse thin films of strontium bis
muth tantalate (SBT). This study uses these analysis techniques to inv
estigate the interdiffusion of various elements In SBT/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si s
tructures which occurs during the annealing process. Evidence of diffu
sion of bismuth through the platinum electrode and titanium is shown w
ithin the platinum electrode.
