Abstrakt: A method to evaluate the space charge trap energy levels in ferroelectric (FE) Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 film incorporated into a metal/FE/metal parallel plate capacitors structure is presented. It is based on microwave measurements of the capacitance relaxation time after the end of a dc pulse, when the change in measured capacitance is due to internal processes of space charge relaxation [Q(t)] in the FE film. Using the Q(t) dependencies obtained as a function of temperature, the time constants of slow relaxation processes were defined and the trap energy levels were evaluated as Et=0.7, 0.5, and 0.1 eV.
