Abstract
SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) films have received considerable attention for use as nonvolatile memory elements. We have developed a process to prepare S ET films with good ferroelectric properties at low temperatures. In th is paper, we will present strategies used to optimize the properties o f the films including film composition, the nature of the substrate (o r bottom electrode) used, and the thermal processing cycle. Under appr opriate conditions, similar to 1700 Angstrom films can be prepared whi ch have a large switchable polarization (2P(sw) >10 mu C/cm(2)), and a n operating voltage less than or equal to 2.0V.
