Abstract
PZT films were deposited on the Pt/TiO<sub>2</sub>/Si(100) substrate at low temperature as low as 380 °C by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process. The effects of the temperature annealing by conventional furnace annealing (CFA) on the crystallization, hysteresis loops and leakage current of PZT films were investigated. After the annealing treatment, the films were transformed into polycrystalline PZT thin films with (001) and (100) orientation, respectively. Moreover, the crystal orientation (001/100) of the films were increased by the increases in the temperature of annealing. The improved ferroelectric behavior was influenced by grain orientation. The film with higher (001) orientation exhibited higher the remnant polarization (2<i>Pr</i>) and lower leakage current density. PZT at annealing temperature of 590 °C for 20 minutes exhibited the best ferroelectric properties. The 2<i>Pr</i> showed was about 24.80 uC/cm<sup>2</sup>, when the applied voltage was ± 5V, and the leakage current density of the PZT films was about 1.697 × 10<sup>-5</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup> at ±5V.
