Description
Summary:Lead titanate (PbTiO3) has been precisely studied on the films preparation due to its unique perovskite structure having ferroelectric behaviour with high permittivity factor for complex storage applications such as capacitor, transistor, and ferroelectric random access memory. In the need to have high quality (PbTiO3) thin films, the lead (Pb) volatilization during crystallization process by means of applying heat treatment as part of crystal growth purpose must be realized. Therefore addition of Pb excess is the highest consideration in lead based composite to ensure perfect crystal growth ever form as well as yield to great particles polarization. There are some issues like fatigue, imprinting, and leakage current that need to be considered to assess the thin films performance. However, the present study focuses only on the crucial issue of leakage current behaviour of the nanoscaled thickness that might be in relation to the microstructural properties of the thin films. Thus, the influence of having extra Pb content might ascertain the benefits of PbTiO3 thin films towards high performance metal-insulator-metal capacitor
