Abstract
Lead zirconate titanate Pb(ZrxTi(1-x))O-3 (PZT) thin films have been d eposited by rf magnetron sputtering on Si substrates from a metallic t arget of nominal composition Pb-1.1(Zr0.4Ti0.6) in a reactive argon/ox ygen gas mixture. During plasma deposition, in situ optical emission s pectroscopy measurements show clearly a correlation between the evolut ion of characteristic atomic emission line intensities Zr-386.4 nm, Ti -399.9 nm, Pb-405.8 nm, and O-777.2 nm and the thin-film composition d etermined by a simultaneous use of Rutherford backscattering spectrosc opy and nuclear reaction analysis.
