Polar Phonon Behaviour in Polycrystalline Bi-Doped Strontium Titanate Thin Films

Abstract: Strontium titanate-based materials with ferroelectric or relaxor-like properties have drawn vast attention as polar dielectrics for electronics and telecommunications. Here, we study the lattice dynamics in sol–gel-derived Sr1−1.5xBixTiO3 thin films with x = 0.0053 and 0.167, deposited on Al2O3 substrates, using a variable-temperature far-infrared spectroscopy in a transmittance mode. Bi doping, known to induce a low-frequency dielectric relaxation in SrTiO3 (ST) ceramics and films, due to off-centre dopant io… Show more

“…In the case of ST thin films, these changes can be significantly enhanced, resulting e.g., in ferroelectricity induced at room temperature in epitaxial ST films by DyScO 3 substrate lattice misfit strain [9]. In addition to the strain [5,9,10], dopants can also induce a variety of phases, ranging from dipolar glass and relaxor to ferroelectric, at isovalent substitution for Sr 2+ by Ba 2+ [6,11], Pb 2+ [6], Ca 2+ [12,13], and Mn 2+ ions [8,14] as well as at heterovalent substitution for Sr 2+ by Bi 3+ [7,[15][16][17], Y 3+ [18][19][20], Dy 3+ [21] and Gd 3+ ions [22,23]. We would wish to note here, that since the perovskite structure of SrTiO 3 is tolerant to substitutional dopants, whereas interstitial doping is not likely to occur in SrTiO 3 [24], doping in this work means ionic substitution.…”
