Ml. Calzada et al., Effect of the substrate heterostructure on the texture of lanthanum modified lead titanate thin films, J EUR CERAM, 21(10-11), 2001, pp. 1529-1533
Modified lead titanate thin films with a nominal composition of Pb0.88La0.0
8TiO3 (PTL) have been prepared by chemical solution deposition (CSD) onto a
nnealed Ti/Pt/Ti/(100)Si and Pt/TiO2/(100)Si. Composition and heterostructu
re of the PTL films on the two substrates have been studied by Rutherford b
ackscattering spectroscopy (RBS). Composition of the PTL films on the two s
ubstrates is similar and close to the nominal one. However, the Ti/Pt/Ti/(1
00)Si and Pt/TiO2/(100)Si substrates induces different textures in the PTL
films. The films on Ti/Pt/Ti/(100)Si developed a (111) preferred orientatio
n, whereas the films on Pt/TiO2/(100)Si have a (100) (001) mixed preferred
orientation. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
