Sm‐doped bismuth titanate and random oriented Bi 4– x Sm x Ti 3 O 12 (BST) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO 2 /Si substrates using a pulsed laser deposition method. The structures and the ferroelectric properties of the films were investigated. Sm doping leads to a marked improvement in the remanent polarization ( P r ) and the coercive field ( E c ). At an applied electric field of 100 kV/cm, P r and E c of a BST ( x = 0.8) film annealed at 650 °C are 20.5 µC/cm 2 and 60 kV/cm, respectively. However, after 3 × 10 10 switching cycles, 20% degradation of 2 P r is observed in the film. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
