Reduction of hafnium oxide and hafnium silicate by rhenium and platinum
We report chemical interactions of Hf-based dielectrics with Re and Pt overlayers during annealing. Reduction of the Hf to a suboxide is observed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, along with a decr...

Electromechanical properties of calcium bismuth titanate films: A potential candidate for lead-free thin-film piezoelectrics
CaBi4Ti4O15 (CBTi144) thin films were evaluated for use as lead-free thin-film piezoelectrics in microelectromechanical systems. The films were grown by the polymeric precursor method on (100)Pt/Ti/Si...

Structural phase transformations in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3O3)–35%PbTiO3 crystals with an electric field (E) applied along [110] and [001] directions have been performed by x-ray diffraction. In the field-cooling process, a phase transformation sequence of Cubic(C)-->Tetragonal(T)-->Orthorhombic(O) was found for E//[110]; whereas a sequence of C-->T-->monoclinic(MC) was found for E//[001]. Our results establish that the stability of MC relative to O (or limiting MC) is altered by the direction along which E is applied. ©2006 American Institute of Physics
