The judgment standard of the sintering temperature of 900-1085 ℃ is less than T c -150 ℃, wherein T c is the ceramic forming temperature of the ceramic target.
The second object of the invention is to provide a low and middle field application dielectric film material which consists of a dielectric film layer and a conductive strontium titanate substrate, wherein the invention considers the low dielectric constant, high breakdown field strength and high dielectric constant and low breakdown field strength of Bi (Mg 2/3Ta1/3)O3 weak coupling relaxation end member) of SrTiO 3 along an electric system material, in order to simultaneously obtain the advantages of the two system materials, the invention combines SrTiO 3 and Bi (Mg 2/3Ta1/3)O3) by taking SrTiO 3 as a matrix to obtain the low and middle field application dielectric film material with the chemical formula of 0.85SrTiO 3-0.15Bi(Mg2/3Ta1/3)O3, namely 0.85SrTiO 3-0.15Bi(Mg2/3Ta1/3)O3 low and middle field application dielectric film material, realizes the regulation and control of the dielectric property of SrTiO 3 by the introduction of Bi (Mg 2/3Ta1/3)O3 end member), and simultaneously realizes high energy storage density, high energy efficiency and excellent wide temperature stability.
The invention researches the influence of different oxygen pressure conditions on the dielectric properties of the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film materials of 0.85SrTiO 3-0.15Bi(Mg2/3Ta1/3)O3, and discovers that when the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film materials grow under the oxygen pressure of 0.135mbar, the breakdown field intensity is smaller, when the oxygen pressure is increased to 0.205mbar, the breakdown field intensity is improved, but the energy storage property is still worse, and when the oxygen pressure is reduced to 0.065mbar, the breakdown field intensity is obviously improved, and the energy storage property is obviously improved.

As a result, it was found that when the oxygen pressure for growing a dielectric thin film material is 0.065mbar in low and medium field applications, defects with different charging properties form defect dipoles due to the increased concentration of internal defects, and the dielectric constant and the breakdown field strength can be simultaneously increased.
Furthermore, the thickness of the dielectric film layer is 260-320 nm, and the thickness range ensures higher energy storage density and obtains larger breakdown field intensity.

4. According to the invention, bi (Mg 2/3Ta1/3)O3 is introduced into the polarization regulation effect of the SrTiO 3 paraelectric system material to perform phase deposition growth under different oxygen pressures, and the lower the deposited oxygen pressure is, the more defects in the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material are, the higher the resistivity of the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material is in a defect dipole formation mode, so that the breakdown field intensity is increased, the leakage characteristic is improved, and the saturation polarization intensity and the breakdown field intensity are simultaneously improved.

(II) influence of different growth oxygen pressure conditions on the properties of dielectric film materials applied to low and medium fields:
(1) Dielectric properties and energy storage properties by taking the prepared film capacitor as an example, the invention explores the influence of different growth oxygen pressure conditions on the energy storage properties and dielectric properties of dielectric film materials applied to low and middle fields. As can be seen from the energy storage density formula, a high energy storage density requires a dielectric material with high saturation polarization, high breakdown field strength and low remnant polarization. Experimental research proves that the dielectric constant of the dielectric material is inversely proportional to the breakdown field strength, so that the dielectric material is difficult to obtain high saturation polarization strength and high breakdown field strength at the same time.
The invention tests the dielectric property of the film capacitor and calculates the dielectric constant epsilon r of the film capacitor by using a parallel plate capacitor model. The test characterization of the dielectric property comprises the change of the dielectric property along with frequency, the change of the dielectric property along with temperature, the change of the dielectric property along with voltage/electric field, namely dielectric spectrum, and the change of the dielectric property along with temperature, namely dielectric temperature spectrum. As a result of the dielectric spectrum analysis, as shown in fig. 9, the dielectric constants of the three groups of film capacitors all decrease with an increase in the external field frequency, because the dipoles inside the film capacitors cannot respond completely to the external field frequency change at high frequencies, thereby resulting in a decrease in polarization contribution. The thin film capacitor prepared under the condition of low oxygen pressure has higher dielectric constant, which indicates that the thin film capacitor can show higher saturated polarization intensity under the same electric field, and the prepared thin film capacitor has lower dielectric loss, which indicates that the thin film capacitor can bear larger applied voltage. The results of the dielectric temperature spectrum analysis are shown in fig. 10, and the three groups of film capacitors have relatively smooth curves except for relatively large differences in the values of dielectric constants, and have no obvious dielectric peaks, which indicates that no obvious phase change process exists in the temperature range.
According to the invention, breakdown field intensity is calculated for three groups of film capacitors through Wei-bull distribution, 13 pieces of test data are selected for each film capacitor for statistical analysis, and the total amount of test data is not excessively deviated from a reasonable interval range, so that randomness and accuracy of the calculated breakdown field intensity are ensured.
The Wei-bull distribution results of the film capacitor at room temperature are shown in FIG. 11, and the result shows that the breakdown field intensity of the film capacitor shows a tendency of increasing after decreasing along with the decrease of the oxygen pressure of growth, wherein the breakdown field intensity of the film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric film material with low and medium fields in the embodiment 1 is the highest and is 6.13MV cm -1. Compared with the film capacitor prepared by the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material in the embodiment 3, the film capacitor prepared by the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material in the embodiment 2 has higher breakdown field strength due to the increase of oxygen pressure and the improvement of crystallization quality of the film capacitor. Compared with the other two film capacitors, the film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric film material with low and medium fields in the embodiment 1 has the defect content in the film capacitor excessive due to the reduction of oxygen pressure, and defect dipoles are formed among defects with different charging properties. The defect dipoles have a remarkable contribution to high dielectric constant, have a certain capturing effect on internal carriers of the thin film capacitor, inhibit migration of the internal carriers, and further improve the dielectric constant and breakdown field strength of the thin film capacitor. In addition, the beta parameters of the Wei-bull distribution of the group of film capacitors are larger, which indicates that the fitting result is high in reliability.
Fig. 12 is a bipolar hysteresis loop of a thin film capacitor prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film materials of example 1 under different external fields, the thin film capacitor exhibiting a finer hysteresis loop over the range of breakdown field strengths, indicating that the thin film capacitor has no significant leakage behavior.
Fig. 13 shows the unipolar hysteresis loop of the film capacitor tested at 2.5MV cm -1 external field using the low-and mid-field applied dielectric film materials of examples 1-3, the film capacitors prepared using the low-and mid-field applied dielectric film materials of examples 1 and 3 exhibited elongated loop shapes with only slight differences in remnant polarization. Fig. 14 shows the parameters calculated from the monopolar electrode loop, namely the ratio P m/Pr of saturated polarization intensity to residual polarization intensity, the energy storage density W rec and the energy efficiency η, and the thin film capacitor prepared under the condition of low oxygen pressure shows more excellent energy storage characteristics in low field.
Fig. 15 shows unipolar hysteresis loops of different electric fields at breakdown field strengths for a thin film capacitor prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film materials of example 1, each exhibiting an elongated shape. FIG. 16 shows the parameters calculated from the monopole hysteresis loop, wherein the film capacitor can achieve an energy storage density of 97J cm 3 and an energy efficiency of 88% at maximum electric field. Namely, the thin film capacitor prepared under the condition of low oxygen pressure can simultaneously obtain higher energy storage density and higher energy efficiency, which is the result of introducing excessive defect regulation into the thin film capacitor.
Fig. 17 is a graph showing the comparison of energy storage density and energy efficiency at 3MV cm -1 external field and 10 6 charge-discharge cycles for the thin film capacitors prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film materials of example 1 and example 3, wherein the energy efficiency of the thin film capacitor prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film material of example 1 was maintained at almost 90%, whereas the energy storage efficiency of the thin film capacitor prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film material of example 3 was less than 80%. Fig. 18 shows the energy storage density and energy efficiency data of the thin film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric thin film material of example 1 in low and middle fields under the charge and discharge cycles of 5MV cm -1 and 10 6 in higher external fields, and the energy storage density of 70J cm 3 and the energy efficiency of approximately 90% can be still achieved, that is, the cycle characteristics of the thin film capacitor prepared under the condition of low oxygen pressure in the middle field can also reach the excellent level.
Fig. 19 shows the unipolar electric hysteresis loop of the thin film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric thin film material of example 1 in the wide temperature range of-100 ℃ to 300 ℃ in the external field of 5MV cm -1, and fig. 20 shows the wide temperature energy storage characteristic data calculated from the unipolar electric hysteresis loop. It is obtained that the film capacitor prepared by the dielectric film material applied to the low and middle fields in the embodiment 1 has stable and excellent low, normal and high temperature energy storage characteristics in the middle field, and can still keep the energy storage density of 69 J.cm 3 and the energy efficiency of 87 percent. Thermal breakdown is one of the main sources of film capacitors in practical application, and heating caused by heat loss cannot be avoided when the micro-devices of an electronic power system are applied. The heat can improve the mobility of carriers in the film capacitor, so that the probability of failure is greatly increased, and the high energy efficiency, namely low energy loss, is one of the most effective modes for avoiding the occurrence of thermal breakdown of the device. Fig. 21 shows unipolar hysteresis loops of a thin film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric thin film material of example 1 under the conditions of 5MV cm -1 external field, -100 ℃ to 300 ℃ wide temperature range and 10 6 charge-discharge cycles, and fig. 22 shows wide temperature fatigue characteristics calculated from the unipolar hysteresis loops. The film capacitor still maintains the energy storage density of 70J cm 3 and the energy efficiency of 83% under the condition, which shows that the film capacitor can still maintain excellent stability under the high-temperature condition.
(2) Leakage current characteristics taking the thin film capacitors prepared by using the low and medium field application dielectric thin film materials of example 1 and example 3 as examples, the influence of different growth oxygen pressures on the leakage current density of the low and medium field application dielectric thin film materials was investigated, and the conductive mechanisms thereof were analyzed, and the test results are shown in fig. 23 and 24, respectively. It should be noted that, the thin film capacitor prepared by using the dielectric thin film material applied in the low and middle fields of example 2 cannot be accurately fitted due to the small breakdown field strength, and the internal conductive mechanism is not compared here.
Fig. 23 is a graph showing ln (J) versus ln (E) characteristics of thin film capacitors prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film materials of examples 1 and 3, fitted using ohmic conduction, space charge confinement mechanism and high field conduction mechanism, as shown in the linear fitting portion of fig. 23, with a curve fitting slope of about 1, in which ohmic conduction is dominant, with a further increase in electric field, a fitting slope of 2-3, in which space charge confinement conduction is dominant, with a further increase in electric field, a sharp increase in leakage current density, and a fitting slope far greater than 2, indicating that other mechanisms are dominant at high fields, specifically PF emission & schottky conduction.
According to the above test results, the conductive mechanisms of the thin film capacitors prepared by using the low and medium field application dielectric thin film materials of example 1 and example 3 were arranged according to the change of the applied electric field intensity, as shown in fig. 24, as the oxygen pressure of the growth of the low and medium field application dielectric thin film materials was reduced, the initial voltage of each conductive mechanism of the thin film capacitor tended to increase, i.e. the higher field conductive mechanism was retarded due to the growth of the low oxygen pressure. This also illustrates that introducing excessive defects can improve the leakage behavior of the thin film capacitor by trapping carriers, thereby increasing the breakdown field strength of the thin film capacitor, i.e., this also explains the reason why the breakdown field strength of the thin film capacitor prepared using the low and medium field applied dielectric thin film material of example 1 is maximized.
In summary, the invention prepares the dielectric film material for low and middle fields of 0.85SrTiO 3-0.15Bi(Mg2/3Ta1/3)O3 with excellent energy storage property in low and middle fields on the Nb: STO substrate with the orientation of (00 l) through radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The defect concentration inside the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material is regulated and controlled to form a defect dipole by changing the oxygen pressure, and the dielectric constant and the energy efficiency of the low-field and medium-field application dielectric film material are improved. By fitting analysis of leakage current mechanisms of dielectric film materials applied to low and medium fields, the initial voltage of each conduction mechanism is increased under the condition of low growth oxygen pressure. The thin film capacitor prepared by the dielectric thin film material with low and medium fields in the embodiment 1 has smaller leakage current and delayed higher field conduction mechanism, which shows that the defect dipole effectively improves the leakage behavior of the thin film capacitor. The film capacitor prepared by the dielectric film material applied to the low and middle fields grown under the condition of low oxygen pressure has optimal energy storage property, the normal temperature energy storage density is 97J cm -3, the energy efficiency is 88 percent, and the wide temperature and fatigue energy storage property are excellent, which also shows that the film capacitor prepared by the dielectric film material applied to the low and middle fields in the embodiment 1 has good energy storage property.
