Abstract :
This paper reports depositions of double layers of thick Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 films in order to realize piezoelectric bimorph structures for MEMS(micro electro-mechanical systems) applications. The PZT/PZT bimorph with the total thickness of 5.4 μm, deposited by magnetron sputtering system, is much thicker than conventionally reported ones. The optimization of the sputtering conditions and electrode structures results in preferable electric and ferroelectric characteristics for both top and bottom PZT layers. In addition, the characteristics of the two layers are consistent with each other.
