Multilayer thin films of lead zirconate titanate/bismuth zinc niobate (PZT/BZN) show excellent tunable dielectric properties. Four layers (PPBLs) demonstrate superior performance for tunable device applications.
Area of Science:
- Materials Science
- Solid State Physics
- Electrical Engineering
Background:
- Multilayer thin films are crucial for advanced electronic devices.
- Dielectric properties and tunability are key parameters for tunable devices.
Purpose of the Study:
- Investigate dielectric properties and tunability of PZT/BZN multilayer thin films.
- Optimize film structure for enhanced performance.
Main Methods:
- Fabrication of PZT/BZN multilayer thin films using pulsed laser deposition.
- Characterization of dielectric properties and tunability under varying electric fields.
Main Results:
- A PZT/BZN bilayer film (3:1 ratio) showed a dielectric constant of 490, loss tangent of 0.017, and 49.7% tunability.
- Four PZT/BZN layers (PPBLs) exhibited a dielectric constant of ~538, 53.3% tunability, and a low loss tangent of ~0.015.
Conclusions:
- The four PPBLs demonstrate excellent dielectric properties and tunability.
- These multilayer films are promising candidates for tunable electronic device applications.
