Enhanced electromagnetic tunability of barium strontium titanate films via coating Pr modified yttrium iron garnet layer

doi:10.1016/j.jmst.2024.03.019

Abstract

Abstract: It is hard to simultaneously realize the high dielectric tunability and low loss for the single Ba_0.6Sr_0.4TiO₃ (BST) dielectric film made through chemical method. Garnet structured Y_2.80Pr_0.20Fe₅O₁₂ (YPrIG) exhibits the merits of high saturation magnetization and a much high resistivity, which are helpful for realizing magnetoelectric double tuning and suppressing the dielectric loss of BST film. In this work, Y_2.80Pr_0.20Fe₅O₁₂/Ba_0.6Sr_0.4TiO₃ (YPrIG/BST) composite films were fabricated by sol-gel method. The composite films exhibited a low dielectric loss (0.0087), and got a magnetic tunability of 11.73% at 10 kOe and 1.44 MHz. Compared with BST film, the tunability of YPrIG/BST film was enhanced from 56.25% to 73.24% under the bias electric field of 800 kV/cm. Additionally, YPrIG/BST films exhibited an electromagnetic double adjustability. The electromagnetic tunability of YPrIG/BST composite films was as high as 80.40% at 1.44 MHz, under the DC bias electric field of 800 kV/cm and magnetic field of 10 kOe. This phenomenon can be explained in terms of the superposition effect of electric field and magnetic field.

Key words: YPrIG/BST thin film, Sol-gel method, Dielectric properties, Electromagnetic tenability, Figure of merit
