Abstract

Epitaxial BaTiO3/SrRuO3 heterostructures were deposited on MgO and SrTiO3 substrates by 90° off-axis, rf-magnetron sputtering. A template layer growth was required to obtain epitaxy on MgO. The crystalline structure of the films was analyzed with x-ray diffraction. The leakage current and remanent polarization depended on the crystalline structure and processing parameters. The BaTiO3 thin films displayed remanent polarizations of 13 μC/cm2 and leakage current densities of 107 Amps/cm2 at 2 volts. The BaTiO3 thin films grown under optimal conditions displayed very little fatigue up to 5×108 cycles.
