Wc. Shin et al., PREPARATION OF FERROELECTRIC YMNO3 THIN-FILMS FOR NONVOLATILE MEMORY DEVICES BY METALORGANIC CHEMICAL-VAPOR-DEPOSITION, Integrated ferroelectrics (Print), 21(1-4), 1998, pp. 319-329
Ferroelectric YMnO3 thin films were successfully prepared on Si(111) a
nd Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates using a hot-wall type metalorganic chemica
l vapor deposition. When Y/Mn ratio was 0.98, the remanent polarizatio
n, P-r, and the coercive field, E-c, of YMnO3 films deposited Pt/Ti/Si
O2/Si were 2.6 mu C/cm(2) and 36.1 kV/cm at an applied voltage of 5V,
respectively. The dielectric constant and the dissipation factor at 1M
Hz were about 16.6 and 0.046, respectively. The leakage current densit
y of the 360 nm thick YMnO3 film was 4.7 x 10(-6) A/cm(2) at 40 kV/cm.
