The conductivity was between 10-5 to 200 S/cm [1]. We prepared field effect transistors using this material. Ferroelectric P(VDF-TrFE) was used as gate insulator. The thickness of P(VDF-TrFE) varied from 120 nm to 1200 nm. Properties of P(VDF-TrFE) were investigated by current-voltage measurements of metal/ P(VDF-TrFE)/metal capacitors. We have found that at room temperature, the coercive field of P(VDF-TrFE) does not depend on the film thickness. At lower temperatures the coercive field increases proportionally to the reciprocal temperature. Remnant polarization is 9.5 µC/cm2. It slightly rises with decreasing temperature. Our recent results of field effect mobility, carrier concentration and threshold voltage are presented. [1] I. Lazareva, Y. Koval, M. Alam, S. Str{\"o}msd{\"o}rfer, P. M{\"u}ller, Appl. Phys.

Electric transport across these layers takes place via intrinsic tunnelling. Mesa devices with a cross-sectional area of 50 to 200 µm2 and a height between 30 and 500 nm were fabricated by electron-beam lithography and ion-beam etching. Both dc I-V characteristics and pulsed current injection have shown switching between different resistive states in these materials. The resistive states have long-term stability, which makes them interesting for memory applications. The transport experiments suggest that switching and resistive memory are controlled by trapping and release of charge carriers. Furthermore, photoelectron and NEXAFS spectroscopy of cleaved LaTiO3.41 surfaces have been performed. The results are compared to recent correlated band theory (LDA+U) calculations.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MichlingFriedrichSchmeisseretal., author = {Michling, Marcel and Friedrich, Daniel and Schmeißer, Dieter and Koval, Yuri and M{\"u}ller, Paul}, title = {Study of polyimide after graphitization with low-energy Ar+ Ion irradiation by NEXAFS}, series = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 44}, booktitle = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 44}, publisher = {Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft}, address = {Bad Honnef}, issn = {0420-0195}, pages = {S. 147}, abstract = {In this contribution we report on investigations of the electronic structure of Ar+ irradiated polyimide samples by using NEXAFS. The NEXAFS measurements were done at the U49/2-PGM2 beam line of BESSY II, Berlin using TEY and TFY detection. Polyimide samples are prepared using low Ar+ dose while the temperature of the samples is varied between 300K and 700K. In the NEXAFS data at the Carbon K-edge we see substantial changes between different samples. The differences appear in particular in the more surface sensitive TEY-Signal. The NEXFS data are consistent with the graphitization of the surface upon Ar+ bombardment as we identify the characteristic absorption bands of graphitic carbon. Its relative content increases with increasing sample temperature. In contrast, in the more bulk sensitive TFY data, the emission characteristic of polyimide is maintained. The possibility to cover insulating polymers with a conducting layer is a great demand for many applications. Because of the relative low price of the basic materials, the irradiation with low-energy Ions will play an important roll in the microelectronic of the future.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FriedrichMichlingSchmeisseretal., author = {Friedrich, Daniel and Michling, Marcel and Schmeißer, Dieter and Koval, Yuri and M{\"u}ller, Paul}, title = {Characterization of ion beam modified polyimide layers}, series = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 45}, booktitle = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 45}, publisher = {Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft}, address = {Bad Honnef}, issn = {0420-0195}, pages = {S. 247}, abstract = {Ion beam modified polyimide show high conductivity.

In order to understand the electronic structure of the pure polyimide before ion beam modification we focus in our preliminary experiments on spectroscopic investigations of thin as prepared polyimide films. The films were made by spin coating from a PMDA/ODA solution with subsequent vacuum annealing at 350°C. The layer thickness can be controlled by changing the concentration of PMDA/ODA in the solution realizing a thickness down to 3.5nm. For the characterization of the as prepared thin polyimide films the techniques NEXAFS, ResPES, XPS and CIS were applied at the U49/2-PGM2 beam line of Bessy II, Berlin. Our data including the valence band, core levels and absorption spectrum were compared with theoretical LCAO calculations. Based on these results we are able to attribute all spectral features to the specific atomic bonds in the molecule.}, language = {en} }
