摘要：
The microstructural features determining the leakage current through polycrystalline BaTiO3 films are investigated using Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy. Grain boundaries are found to be the dominant conductive paths compared to the conduction through the grains. Grain boundary currents are observed to reversibly rise with the increase of the applied DC voltages, indicating that the current is controlled by a field- activated charge transport process.
