To study the effect of the bottom electrode on the properties of the ferroelectric layer, thin SBT (SrBi@sub 2@Ta@sub 2@O@sub 9@) films were deposited by PLD on Pt/Ti/Si, Pt/TiO@sub 2@/Si and RuO@sub 2@/Si grown by DC sputtering. Due to the previously reported experience that the Ti in the adherence promoter layer diffuses to the Pt surface, a study of the SBT/electrode interface using AES and TEM is performed. XRD, SEM, STM and ellipsometry measurements were performed on the SBT films and compared with the corresponding measurements on the ceramic used as target for the deposit, which showed a layered perovskite structure.
