Abstract

Thin films of high dielectric constant (\kappa \sim 68) rutile phase titanium dioxide (TiO_2) were grown epitaxially on tin dioxide (SnO_2) substrates, which are a low cost, more abundant alternative to ruthenium electrodes used previously. Atomic layer deposition at low temperature ({250^\circ C}) was used with titanium(IV) tetrakis(isopropoxide) and hydrogen peroxide (H_2O_2) as precursors. The rutile (TiO_2) thin films have crystalline grains that match the structure and orientation of the grains in the polycrystalline rutile phase (SnO_2) substrates. The epitaxial relations can be clearly identified from the continuous lattice fringes across the interfaces.
