摘要
It is a challenge to reduce the dielectric loss and increase the tunability of pure barium strontium titanate(BST)films for microwave tunable application because these two properties change simultaneously.Herein,a novel composite of strontium titanate(ST)and potassium-doped BST(KBST)has been designed as ST/KBST/ST sandwich-type film with various ST and KBST layers.X-ray diffraction patterns show that the film exhibits cubic perovskite polycrystalline structure composed of BST and ST phase,mainly grow along(110)crystal plane with average grain size of less than 20 nm and decreasing BST phase/ST phase ratio with increasing film thickness.Scanning electron microscope shows that no interfacial layer can be observed,indicating that ST and KBST are fully compounded.Low dielectric loss and high tunability at-10-10 V and stable and excellent dielectric properties at 1 GHz are achieved,meeting the needs of microwave tunable application at high frequency.The surface structures are also studied by other analysis methods,and ST/MgBST/ST sandwich-type film is compared.
