Abstract :
001-, 110-, 111-oriented (Ag1-xLix)NbO3 (ALN) films with x=0.05 (ALN05), 0.1 (ALN10), and 0.15 (ALN15) were fabricated on (001), (110) and (111) SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by pulse laser deposition (PLD). The surface texture of the ALN films ware dependent on the crystal orientation of STO substrates. All the ALN films exhibited a ferroelectric behavior. The ALN films with x=0.1 deposited on (111) STO showed the largest remanent polarization of 40μC/cm2.
