Platinized Silicon Wafers
Thin titanium dioxide/platinum films for bottom electrodes deposited on four-inch silicon wafers. The platinum films can withstand up to 650°C in oxygen for one hour with no roughening or hillock formation. Radiant will coat the electrode with 20/80 PZT or 4/20/80 PNZT if requested.
Detailed specifications listed in below support documents.
PZT and PNZT Wafers
Several compositions to choose from of sol-gel PZT ranging from 600Å to 1.8µ in thickness:
20/80 PZT from 600Å to 3000Å
4% niobium doped 20/80 PZT from 600Å to 1.8µ
9/65/35 PLZT up to 2500Å
15/0/100 PLT up to 1200Å
52/48 PZT from 3000Å to 1µ (A 300Å PLT seed layer will be under the PZT)
The PZT composition may be placed on the wafer with or without a bottom electrode of platinum. If there is no bottom electrode, the thin stack of titanium dioxide and 10/0/100 PLT will be placed below the PZT layer as a barrier. Platinum top and bottom electrodes, either global or patterned can be formed with the film. Chrome/Gold metal interconnect lines may be placed in contact with the electrodes.

Foundry
Radiant Technologies has a complete integrated ferroelectric capacitor process running on 5-micron design rules. Capacitors as small as 5µ on a side up to 1 centimeter on a side consisting of 2600Å 20/80 PZT or 1µ 4% niobium-doped 20/80 PZT.
The capacitors are passivated with Radiant's patented interlayer dielectric stack allowing them to be packaged in TO type transistor packages.
A set of design rules and a pre-formatted wafer file in GDS-II format are available upon request.
At some time in the near future Radiant will expand the foundry process to allow the fabrication of piezoelectric cantilevers, membranes, and platforms.
