Oxide Thin Film Heterostructures on Large Area, with Flexible Doping, Low Dislocation Density, and Abrupt Interfaces: Grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition
Table 8
Overview of doping dependence of dielectric properties of planar BaxSr1−x TiO3:M (M = Fe, Mg, Y, Ti, Zr) thin film capacitors on microwave ceramic substrates. Maximum values of capacity at zero DC bias, value, and tunability are highlighted by bold type. See Figures 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23 for the sample design and selected, more detailed graphs of C and as functions of T for DC bias from 0 to 10 V.
