Так як розміри транзисторів в BiCMOS – структур у мікросхемах нових поколінь постійно зменшуються у розмірах, то і шар диоксиду кремнію повинен ставати все тоншим і тоншим. Проте товщина ізолюючого шару неухильно наближається до межі, за якою суттєво погіршується електричні якості цього традиційного ізолятора напівпровідникових інтегральних схем.
Найбільш вдалу пропозицію для вирішення цієї проблеми зробили спеціалісти фізичної дослідницької лабораторії (PSRR, Physical Sciences Research Lab Motorola) – використовувати матеріал, яких за своїми електричними властивостями схожий на діоксид кремнію, але має набагато менші фізичні розміри. Цей матеріал – титанат стронцію відноситься до класу мінералів – перовскітів ( perovskites).
Він має діелектричні показники, які перевищують діоксид кремнію більше ніж в 10 разів.
У лабораторії цей матеріал одержують штучно, нарощуючи атоми шар за шаром, що дає можливість одержати чисті і майже ідеальні кристали перовскітів.
Унікальні діелектричні характеристики дозволяють у 3-4 рази зменшити товщину елементарних транзисторів кристалу в порівнянні з використанням діоксиду кремнію.
Перспективи використання перовскітів дуже широкі. На їх основі можна проектувати напівпровідникові мікросхеми широкого вжитку з дуже низьким енергоспоживанням.
