Bismuth-zinc-niobate embedded capacitors grown at room temperature for printed circuit board applications
We fabricated metal-insulator-metal (MIM) thin film capacitors with Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O7 (BZN) dielectric films. The BZN films were deposited at room temperatures by pulsed laser deposition and annealed below 200°C which is compatible with the used polymer-based substrates. The dielectric constant of B...

Zusammenfassung: | We fabricated metal-insulator-metal (MIM) thin film capacitors with Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O7 (BZN) dielectric films. The BZN films were deposited at room temperatures by pulsed laser deposition and annealed below 200°C which is compatible with the used polymer-based substrates. The dielectric constant of BZN films increases from 2 to 70, when they are annealed at 150°C, but still in amorphous phase. We found that a considerable portion of Bi metallic phase still remains in the as-deposited film. They turn into oxides upon annealing at >120°C, causing the dramatic change of the dielectric properties. Amorphous BZN thin films exhibit superior dielectric characteristics, capacitance density of 150nF∕cm2, and leakage current less than 1μA∕cm2 at 5V. The MIM capacitors using amorphous BZN thin films will be a promising candidate for the PCB-embedded capacitors. |
