The MgO films on GaAs were grown by pulsed laser deposition and electron-beam evaporation and the capacitor heterostructures were grown using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed all films to be (001) oriented. Ferroelectric capacitors were fabricated to determine their electrical behavior: the films showed resistivity above 1010 ohms/cm2, a typical saturation polarization of 20-30 μC/cm2, minimum retention loss, low time-dependent imprint and negligible fatigue up to 1011 cycles. These characteristics indicate that high-quality (001) oriented PLZT can be easily integrated with GaAs substrates, and could be used to produce GaAs-based electrical and, more importantly, optical devices.}, year = {1996}, journal = {Integrated Ferroelectrics}, volume = {12}, number = {1}, pages = {63-69}, publisher = {Taylor and Francis Inc.}, issn = {10584587}, doi = {10.1080/10584589608225749}, note = {cited By 0}, language = {eng}, }
