The solution was distilled for 2 hours with stirring and refluxed for 22 hours to obtain double alkoxide BaPb (OC 2 H 4 OCH 3 ) 4 . This alcohol substitution reaction was confirmed by the 1 H NMR spectrum. The formation of the alkoxide having the BaPbO 3 precursor structure is important for controlling the composition of Ba / Pb = 1/1 and for homogeneity at the molecular level. Thereafter, the obtained precursor solution was passed through a 0.2 μm filter to remove M

Prior to spin coating, the MgO substrate was washed with a solvent, etched with hydrochloric acid, rinsed with deionized water, and finally dried by spin coating with ethanol in a nitrogen stream. The spin-coated substrate was rapidly heated to 300 ° C. at a rate of 10 ° C./sec in an oxygen atmosphere bubbled in deionized water at room temperature.

Despite heating at a high temperature of 0 ° C./sec, the obtained BaPbO 3 thin film having a thickness of 0.1 μm showed an X-ray diffraction pattern crystallized in (110) orientation. For further comparison, the surface of the BaPbO 3 thin film crystallized at 650 ° C. was observed by SEM (scanning electron microscope) without being thermally decomposed at 300 ° C. by rapidly increasing the temperature at 10 ° C./sec. Cracks and bubbles were observed in the thin film, and the quality was extremely poor. On the other hand, when thermal decomposition was performed at 300 ° C., a good BaPbO 3 thin film was obtained. Thus, during rapid temperature rise, it was effective to carry out thermal decomposition before crystallization. When the resistance of the obtained BaPbO 3 thin film was measured by a four-terminal method, the thin film annealed at 450 ° C. was 9 × 10 −4.

According to the method for producing an oriented conductive thin film of the present invention, it is advantageous in terms of precise chemical composition control, uniformity at a molecular level, low temperature of the process, large area, low equipment cost, and the like. By using a certain organometallic compound solution, an epitaxial or oriented conductive oxide thin film excellent in cost and oxidation resistance can be obtained in a short time. Therefore, a conductive oxide thin film as an electrode of a nonvolatile memory or a light modulation element can be manufactured. Further, since the conductive oxide in the present invention has a lattice constant and a crystal structure close to those of many ferroelectrics, an epitaxial or oriented ferroelectric substance is formed on the conductive oxide thin film. A thin film or the like can be deposited, and a high-performance device can be manufactured.
