On the other hand, the sol-gel method uses coating and heating.
By a simple operation of (firing), a ferroelectric film can be formed without using an expensive device, which is suitable for mass production. As an improvement of the sol-gel method for obtaining a more homogeneous film, a method using an organic metal compound such as an alkoxide as a raw material, that is, an organic solvent solution containing a mixture of alkoxides of component metals is applied to a substrate and baked. A method has been proposed.

However, even with this method, it is difficult to form a completely homogeneous film because the metal alkoxide is rapidly hydrolyzed by water in the atmosphere. In this regard, it is known to add stabilizers for metal alkoxides to suppress hydrolysis, but still unsatisfactory results have not been obtained. In particular, the conversion of alkoxides to oxides is incomplete during firing, resulting in a film that is composed of fine small particles and is incompletely densified, resulting in composition fluctuations due to loss of more volatile metal components, and ferroelectric properties. It was the cause of the decrease.

Although the action of the oxidizing agent in the present invention has not been completely clarified, it is presumed as follows at the present time. That is, when an oxidant coexists with a stabilizer in the mixed solution, a metal-oxygen-metal bond is formed by first generating a metal peroxide, and the alkoxide-type organometallic compound is formed by the gradual polymerization of the component metals. Hydrolysis and polycondensation are partially suppressed and the mixed solution is stabilized. On the other hand, at the time of heating (baking) after coating, oxygen is supplied from the oxidizing agent, and the amount of oxygen is increased, which promotes conversion into oxides due to hydrolysis and polycondensation, and heating at a lower temperature reduces the organic content. A more homogeneous and dense film with less residue is produced.

As can be seen from the above results, in the examples, by adding the oxidizing agent together with the stabilizer in the coating solution,
A film having a very high yield of 99% in one case and 100% in the rest was obtained. This means that the formed film is dense and homogeneous. On the other hand, in the comparative example in which the oxidizing agent was not added, the film was not dense and uniform, so that the yield was greatly reduced to 1/3 or less, and the insulation performance was remarkably poor. The reason why the dielectric properties (dielectric constant, dielectric loss) of the film of the comparative example did not drop significantly compared to the corresponding examples is that the dielectric properties were measured in the normal part of the film of the comparative example. Is. Therefore, the superiority or inferiority of the insulating film is mainly evaluated by the yield.
