N2 - Ferroelectric thin films with high Curie temperature Tc and high piezoelectric coupling factor k are fascinated for a better piezoelectric MEMS. Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT)-based ferroelectric ceramics exhibit high piezoelectricity, but the Tc is not high, i.e. Tc <400°C. PZT-based piezoelectric thin films with higher Tc will be much useful. Based on a strain engineering, it is commonly understood the in-plane biaxial strain enhances the Tc of PZT thin films in a laminated composite structure. However, thickness of the PZT thin films is limited below a critical thickness typically < 50nm. Recently it has been found in-plane relaxed single crystal PZT-based thin films, i.e. PMnN-PZT(48/52) thin films, thickness above the critical thickness (typically 1μm), exhibited enhanced Tc The Tc is extraordinary high, Tc = 600°C. Their ferroelectric performances are beyond bulk PZT. The high Tc phenomena are demonstrated and the possible mechanisms of the high Tc behavior are discussed.
