Popis: | A high-density 3 in. diameter (Pb,La)(Zr,Ti)O3 [PLZT] ceramic target containing 20% excess PbO was sputtered by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering to deposit films containing excess Pb and evaluated with respect to target stability for use in the mass production of ferroelectric memories on Si wafers. The results indicated that PLZT film deposition rate increased with power but the excess PbO content correspondingly decreased. The Pb loss in the films was attributed to secondary preferential sputtering of film substrate in the plasma. Regardless of this difference, excess PbO containing 12 in. diameter PLZT ceramic targets were evaluated in a commercial sputtering system over a period of 7 months and the film Pb content was stable within ±1%. |
