Abstract

The frequency and temperature dependence of the dielectric constant of SrTiO~3~ (STO) thin‐film capacitors in multilayer structures of YBa~2~Cu~3~O~7–δ~/SrTiO~3~/YBa~2~Cu~3~O~7–δ~ films were measured over the frequency range 100 to 10^6^ Hz at 2–300 K. In a 750‐nm‐thick STO film, a low‐frequency dielectric dispersion gradually occurs in the temperature region below 50 K; at 5 K, the dielectric constant ε~r~ increases to 1.1 × 10^5^ at frequencies below 10^3^ Hz. A space‐charge polarization mechanism is responsible for the large observed dielectric constant of the STO thin films at low temperatures. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
