Characterization of Lead Zirconate-Titanate Thin Films Prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Dense smooth lead zirconate-titanate thin films have been prepared by excimer laser deposition. The as-deposited films are amorphous as indicated by x-ray powder patterns. Differential scanning calorimetry studies show that the film has a glass transition at 301 °C, and the amorphous to crystalline transformation takes place above 350°C to 650°C. Phase formation as a result of post-deposition heat treatment is described.
