Abstract

Insulating BaTiO3 thin films were obtained on titanium coated silicon wafers using a novel low temperature technique. They were produced hydrothermally by introducing the substrate in a 0.25M Ba(OH)2 solution inside an autoclave and heating in the 200- 250°C range for 8 hours. This treatment delivered smooth pinhole-free films on the Ti with thicknesses ranging from 35nm (200°C) to 45nm (250°C), with grains in the 100- 300nm diameter range in all films. The films exhibited a dielectric constant up to 227, a breakdown field of 70MV/m, and a dc resistivity of 4.106Ωm.
