摘要: The dielectric behavior of Pt/SrTiO3/Pt thin films is reported in this paper. STO (20 nm and 50 nm) were deposited by ion-beam-sputtering (IBS). This study was carried out the temperature ranging from 25degC to 150degC for frequencies range 0.01 Hz-1 MHz. Results showed that permittivity depends strongly on frequency, sample thickness. For latter, constant decreases as film thickness decreased. can be explained an interfacial "dead layer effect" reduces effective constant. Using approximative calculations based dependence constant, we have estimated 'dead layer'. a given thickness, when frequency decreased, observe increase permittivity. more pronounced increases with nm. A relaxation peak loss tangent same confirms process. We suggest relaxations at grain boundaries explain relaxation. differs function thickness: temperature, located higher less important thinner film. explains tandelta An ionic space charge movement blocking accumulation ions electrodes could responses (permittivity losses) lowest frequencies. To conclude, low spectroscopy appears essential tool understand optimize high integrated MIM capacitances
