Thin films of Nd and Mn cosubstituted bismuth titanate, i.e., Bi3.15Nd0.85(Ti3−xMnx)O12 (BNTM) (x=0, 0.005, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.1), were fabricated on Pt∕Ti∕SiO2∕Si(100) substrates at 700°C by a chemical solution deposition technique. The structures of the films were analyzed using x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. These films possessed preferred (117) and (00l)-oriented polycrystalline structures. The ferroelectric properties of BNTM films were systematically investigated as a function of the Mn content. It is found that a low concentration substitution with manganese ions in Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 greatly enhances the remnant polarization (2Pr) and reduces the coercive field (2Ec) of the film. The 2Pr and 2Ec are 78μC∕cm2 and 205kV∕cm, respectively. No fatigue phenomenon is also observed for the BNTM film with x=0.01 up to 1.5×1010 switching cycles.
