Abstract

Barium Strontium Titanate films have been deposited by rf magnetron sputtering and have been studied with respect to Ba/Sr ratio. Physical and electrical characterization has been done as a function of temperature, thickness, and composition, and results show that dielectric constant increases with increasing temperature, thickness (up to ∼80 nm), and Ba/Sr ratio for the compositions studied. The lattice parameters for the sputtered films are larger than those expected for powder samples and also increase with increasing Ba/Sr ratio.
