ABSTRACT

In the work, “ex-situ” prepared PZT films were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si and Pt/Ti/pyroseram substrates by rf magnetron sputtering of PZT ceramic targets additionally containing excess lead oxide. An unusual “beak” shape of pyroelectric and piezoelectric hysteresis loops measured by “remanent hysteresis” regime were studied upon application of strong electric fields, temperature, and surface morphology of PZT films. The observed anomalies nature is discussed.
