Electromagnetic effect material

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION AND RELATED ART STATEMENT
The present invention concerns an electromagnetic effect material which is useful, for example, for digital information recording memory devices and various electronic devices.
Electromagnetic effect, that is, a phenomenon of inducing magnetization to a substance by an electric field applied externally or a phenomenon of inducing electric polarization to a substance by magnetic field applied externally has been reported in, for example, "The Electrodynamics of Magneto-electric Media" (1970), pp 1-19, "Magnetic Material Handbook" (published from Asakura Shoten), 1975, pp 989-999, etc.
However, most of materials for which the electromagnetic effect has been confirmed exhibit the effect at a temperature of lower than 100 K., with an example of the highest temperature being at 307 K. for Cr.sub.2 O.sub.3. Accordingly, no stable effect can be expected near the room temperature in existent materials and, it is difficult to constitute practical devices, memories, etc. applied with electromagnetic effect. "xBi-yFe-zC-wD-.alpha.O" series ceramics to be described later have been known by "Data of Magnetics Research Group of Electric Society", MAG 89-117 and MAG 89-193, published in Japan. However, it has not yet been known that the ceramics have an electromagnetic effect.

The xA-yB-zC-wD-.alpha.O series oxide ceramics according to the present invention are in an amorphous state according to the X-ray diffractiometry which do not substantially form a crystal phase. It is considered that electromagnetic effect is caused due to such an amorphous state.
In the present invention, crystal phases such as a perovskite phase or spinel phase may be incorporated to some extent depending on the composition for a portion of the oxide ceramic.
In the formula described above, A and B are one or more of elements selected from the combination of elements represented by the general formula ABO.sub.3 and capable of forming a perovskite structure compound showing a ferro-magnetic or antiferromagnetic property.
For the element A, there can be mentioned Na, K, Cs, Ca, Sr, Ba, Y, Cu, Cd, In, Tl Pb, Bi, lanthanide series elements comprising La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu, Pu and Am.

It is supposed that C and D contribute to the development of the dielectric property.
A case in which A and C are identical and B and D are identical each other and a case in which A is Fe and B is Bi are excluded.
Further, in a case in which X, y, z and W represent the ratio for the elements A, B, C and D, respectively, x+y+z+w=1, 0.01<x<0.95, 0.01<y<0.95, 0.01<z<0.95 and 0.01<w<0.95, the resultant oxide ceramics are in an amorphous state and develop electromagnetic effect.

Then, the thin film was applied with a heat treatment at 400.degree. to 900.degree. C. in an air atmosphere to obtain the electromagnetic material according to the present invention.
Although the thin film just after the sputtering does not exhibit the electromagnetic effect, it exhibits the electromagnetic effect by applying the heat treatment.

In the present invention, the electromagnetic effect material constituted with the oxide ceramics have a temperature region in which the electromagnetic bonding coefficient is greater than 1.0.times.10.sup.-5 (emu cm/V g) within a temperature range from 250 to 700 K.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The present invention will now be explained more specifically by way of examples.
COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 1
An electrode was formed by a conductive silver paste on a surface in perpendicular to the C axis of single crystal plate of Cr.sub.2 O.sub.3.
For the thus resultant thin film, and electric magnetic bonding coefficient (.alpha.) was measured under the intensity of an electric field applied at 10 kV/cm. As a result, .alpha. was 1.2.times.10.sup.-5 (emu cm/V g) at 300 K. and the electromagnetic effect was not developed at 350 K.
EXAMPLE 1
At first, a Pt electrode layer was formed by means of a sputtering method on a silicon substrate. Then, a thin oxide layer was prepared on the Pt electrode layer by a reactive sputtering method in an oxygen atmosphere using, as a target, a filled powder mixture of Dy.sub.2 O.sub.3, Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, PbO and TiO.sub.2 which were mixed and sintered.
The sputtering gas is a gas mixture of Ar:O.sub.2 =7:3 in which the purity of each of Ar and O.sub.2 used was higher than 99.995%.
Prior to the film formation, the temperature of the substrate was elevated to 200.degree. C. to eliminate water content mainly adsorbed on the surface of the substrate. Further, pre-sputtering was applied for about 30 min before film formation to clean the surface of the target so as to stabilize the film quality and the thin film composition upon film formation by sputtering.
Before introducing the sputtering gas, it was confirmed that the degree of vacuum reached less than 2.times.10.sup.-7 Torr. During sputtering-film formation, the total gas pressure was kept constant at 25 mTorr. During sputtering, the anode made of Copper for fixing the substrate was cooled with water to maintain the temperature of the substrate to 20.degree.-25.degree. C. during film formation. Sputtering-film formation was applied for 30 to 60 min while setting the RF power charged to 110 W. Since the sputtering rate varied depending on the composition of the target, scattering was observed for the thickness of the thus obtained film, and each of the films showed about 500 to 1000 nm thickness.
The thin film just after the sputtering was applied with a heat treatment at 600.degree. C. for 3 hours in an air atmosphere.
Furthermore, a Pt electrode layer was formed on the thin film by a sputtering method. The thickness for the deposition film of each of two Pt electrode layers was set to 200 nm.
Sputtered oxide thin films comprising Dy, Fe, Pb and Ti were prepared by the process for forming the thin films as described above. For each of the thin films, an electric magnetic bonding coefficient (.alpha.) was measured under the intensity of an electric field applied at 10 kV/cm. The results are collectively shown in Table 1. According to the table, the electromagnetic bonding coefficient of about 1.1.times.10.sup.-4 (emu cm/Vg) at the minimum was observed even at 350 K.
