xNd(Zn1/2Ti1/2)O-3(1-x)Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (xNZT-BST) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by solgel method with x=0, 3%, 6%, and 10%. The structures, surface morphology, dielectric and ferroelectric properties, and thermal stability of xNZTBST thin films were investigated as a function of NZT content. It was observed that the introduction of NZT into BST decreased grain size, dielectric constant, ferroelectricity, tunability, and significantly improved dielectric loss and dielectric thermal stability. The corresponding reasons were discussed. The 10%NZTBST thin film exhibited the least dielectric loss of 0.005 and the lowest temperature coefficient of permittivity (TCP) of 3.2x103/degrees C. In addition, the figure of merit (FOM) of xNZTBST (x=3%, 6%, and 10%) films was higher than that of pure BST film. Our results showed that the introduction of appropriate NZT into BST could modify the dielectric quality of BST thin films with good thermal stability. Especially for the 3%NZTBST thin film, it showed the highest FOM of 33.58 for its appropriate tunability of 32.87% and low dielectric loss of 0.0098.
