Abstract

SrTiO3 (STO) thin films with (200) preferential orientation were deposited on p-Si(100) substrates at 700°C by RF magnetron sputtering technique. Their leakage current mechanisms with metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures were investigated. It was found that the leakage current mechanisms followed the space charge limited current (SCLC) under the low applied electric filed and the Poole-Frenkel emission under the high one. In addition, the resistivity was higher than 1011 Ω · until the voltage up to 10 V (corresponding to the electric field of 1.54 × 103 kV/cm), indicating that the STO films have good insulation properties.
