Abstract

Uniform and transparent PbZr0.40Ti0.60O3 (PZT) amorphous thin films were deposited on the fused silica substrates using a modified sol-gel processing. The optical properties of PZT amorphous thin films were investigated in the wavelength range of 200-1100 nm. The refractive index, the extinction coefficient and the film thickness were calculated by a classical envelope method. The dispersion of the refractive index is well explained by the single-term Sellmeier relation. The band gap of the PbZr0.40Ti0.6003 thin films is about 3.78 eV using Tauc's theory.
