ABSTRACT |
Hexagonal $YMnO_3$ thin films were prepared from $Y(NO_3)_3{cdot}5H_2O$ and $Mn(CH_3CO_2)_2{cdot}4H_2O$ as starting materials on the Si(100) substrates by the sol-gel method. The crystal structure and the electrical properties of the $YMnO_3$ thin films were investigated as a function of heat treatment temperature, the amount of water(Rw) of hydrolysis and the addition of catalysis. The crystallization of the $YMnO_3$ thin film began at 700${circ}C$ and completed at 800${circ}C$ for 1 h. The c-axis (0001) preferred orientation of hexagonal $YMnO_3$ was detected for the $YMnO_3$ thin films with Rw=6 and that was decreased for the $YMnO_3$ thin films with Rw=1 and Rw=12. The crystallinity and preferred orientation of the $YMnO_3$ thin films were depended on the addition of acid and/or alkali catalysis, which, in turn, the preferred orientation of c-axis was decreased and the orthorhombic phase of $YMnO_3$ was detected to the specimens with the addition of catalysis. The $YMnO_3$ thin film with Rw=6 showed good leakage current density of $1.2{times}10-8 A/cm^2$ at the applied voltage of 0.2V and the leakage current density was not changed drastically with applied voltage. |
