Structural characterization by x-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy reveals that the films are typically c-axis oriented with a small fraction of a-axis oriented material, that is deposition condition dependent. The electrical properties change systematically with the crystalline quality and the best properties are obtained at higher temperatures. Above 715{\textdaggerdbl} C, there is progressive loss of lead and the electrical properties are diminished. {\textcopyright} 1992 TMS.}, year = {1992}, booktitle = {Journal of Electronic Materials}, journal = {Journal of Electronic Materials}, series = {Journal of Electronic Materials}, volume = {21}, number = {5}, pages = {513-518}, institution = {Springer-Verlag}, publisher = {Springer-Verlag}, issn = {03615235}, doi = {10.1007/BF02655618}, note = {cited By 8}, language = {eng}, }
