摘要
Ferroelectric YMnO3 thin films are grown on Si (111) substrates using Y2O3 buffer layers by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). In situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) analyses show that both Y2O3 and YMnO3 films are epitaxially grown on Si substrates. X-ray rocking curve measurements also show that the best full-width at half maximum (FWHM) values for Y2O3 and YMnO3 films are 0.4 degrees and 1.5 degrees, respectively. Concerning the electrical properties, capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of Al/YMnO3/Y2O3/Si structures indicate the ferroelectric properties of YMnO3 films with a memory window of 0.3 V.
