Thin films of strontium titanate, which reveal high structure quality and tunable properties prospective for microwave applications at room temperature, were grown on a semi-insulating silicon carbide substrate using magnetron sputtering for the first time. The films' growth mechanisms were studied using medium-energy ion scattering, and the films' structures were investigated using X-ray diffraction. The electrical characteristics of planar capacitors based on strontium titanate films were measured at a frequency of 2 GHz using a high-precision resonance technique. It is shown that the tendency to improve the crystalline structure of strontium titanate film with an increase in the substrate temperature is most pronounced for films deposited at elevated working gas pressure under low supersaturation conditions. Planar capacitors formed on the basis of oriented SrTiO3 films on silicon carbide showed tunability n = 36%, with a loss tangent of 0.008–0.009 at a level of slow relaxation of capacitance, which is significantly lower than the data published currently regarding planar tunable ferroelectric elements. This is the first successful attempt to realize a planar SrTiO3 capacitor on a silicon carbide substrate, which exhibits a commutation quality factor more than 2500 at microwaves.
