Abstract

(BiLa)4Ti3O12 (BLT) films have been fabricated by the sol-gel technique and characterized. It is shown that the partially replacing Bi with La can promote the crystallization, hence can reduce the crystallization temperature of the film. It is also demonstrated that crystalline orientations of sol-gel derived ferroelectric BLT films can be controlled by the growth conditions.
