Structural distortion of ferroelectric thin films caused by film strain has a strong impact on the microwave dielectric properties. SrTiO 3 thin films epitaxially grown on (110) DyScO 3 substrates using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are extremely strained (i.e., ∼⃒ 1% in-plnae tensional strain) from 3.905 Å of bulk SrTiO 3 . The room temperature dielectric constant and its tuning of the films are observed to be 6000 and 75% with an electric field of 1 V/μ m, respectively. The control of strain in SrTiO 3 provides a basis for room temperature tunable microwave applications by elevating its phase transition peak to room temperature. Also, a significant in-plane anisotropy in dielectric constant and tuning was observed in these SrTiO 3 films. The observed in-plane anisotropic dielectric properties have been interpreted based on the phenomenological thermodynamics of film strain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
