Abstract

PbTiO₃ (PT) thin film with perovskite-type microstructure was synthesized directly on transparent sapphire using a rf-magnetron sputtering system with a composite target. The results show that the film is completely [111] oriented, and the lattice constant is larger than that of bulk PT material. The optical properties were calculated from the transmittance spectrum alone, and the dispersion was found to fit the single-term Sellmeier relation well. The minimum refractive index of the film is found to be 2.51, and the direct band-gap energy is estimated to be 3.65 eV from the linear fitting of the absorption coefficient to the Tauc plot of ((alpha) hv)² vs hv.
