Sol—gel SrBi2Ta2O9 films (SBT films) are synthesized and their properties are investigated. Sol—gel SBT films are layered by centrifugation with following heat treatment of each layer at the temperature of 300°C during 5 minutes. Monocrystalline silicon with a platinum sublayer is used as a substrate. The results of X-ray studies show that, in the fabrication of SBT films by sol—gel method, the perovskite-phase formation begins at 700°C, and it is completed at 750—800°C. During the heat treatment at 750°C in oxygen atmosphere, more uniform distribution of the grain sizes over the surface is observed by atomic force microscopy. Sol—gel SBT films annealed at 750°C for 60 minutes have the dielectric constant maximum at 100 Hz at the Curie temperature TK = 300—370°C, showing the ferroelectric transitions in the paraelectric phase.
Key words: SBT-film, perovskite, ferroelectric, sol, heat treatment, sol—gel method, X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy.
