Abstract From the Canadian patent

Modulated-structure polycrystalline or heteroepitaxial multilayers of PZT/PT ferroelectric thin films are deposited on a substrate, preferably by laser ablation. The laser ablation of the PZT/PT layers onto a prepared substrate occurs while maintaining the substrate at a temperature between 380 ·C to about 650 ·C. The target source for the PZT/PT laser ablated film may be either bulk PZT and PT ceramics or powders or individual metal oxides or metal pellets. The ferroelectric thin film device may be used for a random access memory.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed March 15, 1993. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 15, 2013.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 15, 2015.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
