Abstract :
Thin films of tetragonal bismuth ferrite lead titanate compositions have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The films exhibit a dense columnar grain growth which is characteristic of PLD. XRD analysis reveals that the films have a preferred (111) texture. The dielectric properties and polarisation-field hysteresis behaviour of the films is also reported.
