A crystalline (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3 (NKN) phase was formed for a film grown at 600°C, but a K5.75Nb10.85O30 (KN) second phase was also observed in this film. Formation of the KN phase was due to the evaporation of Na2O. A homogeneous NKN phase was developed in the film grown at 300°C and annealed at 800°C under a Na2O atmosphere. This film exhibited the following good electric and dielectric properties: a high dielectric constant of 237.4 with a dissipation factor of 0.93% at 100 kHz, a low leakage current density of 1.0 × 10−8 A/cm2 at 0.1 MV/cm2, and the high Pr and d33 values of 21.1 μC/cm2 and 64.5 pm/V, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
