Abstract

We have fabricated epitaxial ferroelectric heterostructures of isotropic metallic oxide (SrRuO3) and ferroelectric thin films [SrRuO3/Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 /SrRuO3] on (100) SrTiO3 and YSZ buffer layered Si substrates by 90° off-axis sputtering. These heterostructures have high crystalline quality and coherent interfaces as revealed by X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. The ferroelectric layers exhibit superior fatigue characteristics over 1010 cycles with large remnant polarization.
