Abstract
Thin Pb-Ti-O films on single-crystal Si were prepared by magnetron sputteri ng followed by thermal oxidation of Pb/Ti/Si and Ti/Pb/Si structures. Oxida tion of Pb/Ti bilayers was found to yield lead oxides, which then react wit h Ti to form lead titanate. Ti/Pb bilayers on Si could be converted into st oichiometric lead titanate, through titanium and lead oxides, by oxidation between 870 and 1070 K. Some of the films exhibited ferroelectric propertie s.
