摘要
The research findings of the phase composition,nanostructure and optical properties of strontium-barium niobate thin films are discussed.Sr_(x)Ba_(1−x)Nb_(2)O_(6)nanosized films(x=0.5 and 0.61)were characterized by XRD,SEM and AFM studies.Reflective multi-angle ellipsometry and spectrophotometry were used to determine the optical parameters(refractive index,its dispersion,and thickness of the damaged surface layer)of thin films.It was shown that SBN-50 and SBN-61 thin films were grown c-oriented on Al_(2)O_(3)(0001)and heteroepitaxial on MgO(001)substrates.The increase of refractive index,approaching its maximum value in the bulk material for a given composition as the film thickness increases,is observed.
