Popis: The effects of microstructure on the electrical properties of Ln 2 Ti 2 O 7 (Ln=La, Nd) films were investigated by depositing on Pt/Ti/Si and Y 2 O 3 /Si substrates using the sol–gel and spin-coating method. The films were crystallized at 800 °C in O 2 for 30 min in a tube furnace by direct insertion. According to the A-site cation, the different tendencies in ferroelectric properties between films and single crystals were observed. The ferroelectric parameters are: Pr=4.4 μC/cm 2 , Ec=131 kV/cm for Nd 2 Ti 2 O 7 film; and Pr=1.8 μC/cm 2 , Ec=75.28 kV/cm for La 2 Ti 2 O 7 film, respectively. C-V characteristics of Ln 2 Ti 2 O 7 /Y 2 O 3 /Si structure were measured to investigate the ferroelectric memory effects at 1 MHz with a bias sweep rate of 0.18 V/s. The values of the memory window were 2.7 and 2.3 V for Nd 2 Ti 2 O 7 and La 2 Ti 2 O 7 films with 7 V of applied voltage, respectively.
