Abstract
Lanthanum modified lead titanate thin films have been obtained by the deposition of sol-gel solutions onto platinized (100) silicon substrates. Crystallization of perovskite films was achieved by thermal treatments at 650°C with slow or rapid heatings. Lead oxide excesses were used in the precursor solutions to counterbalance the lead losses produced during the thermal treatment. Rapid heatings and large excesses of lead produce a preferred orientation of the films. These films have more homogeneous and denser microstructures than slow heated films without lead excess.
