Effect of cation stoichiometry on electric properties of thin-film varactors with BaxSr1−xTiO3 tunable dielectric and highly conducting SrMoO3 electrodes — •Lukas Zeinar1, Patrick Salg1, Aldin Radetinac1, Dominik Walk2, Philipp Komissinskiy1, Holger Maune2, Rolf Jacoby2, and Lambert Alff11Materials Science, TU Darmstadt, Germany — 2Microwave Engineering and Photonics, TU Darmstadt, Germany

We present Au/Pt/BaxSr1−xTiO3/SrMoO3 varactor heterostructures utilizing single crystalline BaxSr1−xTiO3 films grown epitaxially by pulsed laser deposition on a highly conducting thin*film oxide SrMoO3 bottom electrodes with a room-temperature resistivity of 30 µΩcm. The stoichiometry of the dielectric BaxSr1−xTiO3 was tuned to achieve the desirable high tunability and low losses of the varactors at room temperature. Influence of the cation stoichiometry of the BaxSr1−xTiO3 films on their Curie temperature and room-temperature dielectric permittivity was investigated. The changes of the BaxSr1−xTiO3 out-of-plane lattice parameter by 2 % and the corresponding changes of the Ba-Sr and (Ba,Sr)-Ti cation ratios by 6 and 11 %, respectively, were observed by varying the laser energy fluence in the range between 0.3 and 1.4 J/cm2. Tunability and leakage current of the varactors were investigated by a vector network analyzer at frequencies between 300 MHz and 10 GHz. Fine tuning of the BaxSr1−xTiO3 cation stoichiometry allows high relative tunability of the varactors up to 80 % and reduction of the varactor leakage current by up to three orders of magnitude down to 10 nA.
