(Y@sub 0.95@,Bi@sub 0.05@)MnO@sub 3@ (YBM) on Pt and Y@sub 2@O@sub 3@ buffered Si (100) have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition. Addition of Bi in YMnO@sub 3@ enhanced crystallization of YMnO@sub 3@ thin films. The c-axis oriented YBM films have been obtained on Pt and Y@sub 2@O@sub 3@/Si at 700 °C, which is lower deposition temperature than that of typical YMnO@sub 3@ films. The processing conditions of depositing oxygen partial pressure and cooling atmosphere have affected crystallization behavior and electrical properties of YBM films. At low oxygen partial pressures, (111), (112) and c-axis oriented polycrystalline nature were observed. As the oxygen pressure increased, YBM films intended to grow with c-axis preferred orientation. YBM deposited in oxygen pressure of 100 mTorr was strongly oriented along the c-axis at the substrate temperature of 700 °C. YBM grown on Y@sub 2@O@sub 3@/Si had a hysteresis curve with a clockwise direction, which indicates that the C-V hysteresis curve is caused by ferroelectric polarization switching. The memory window was about 2 V at a sweep voltage of 8 V.
