Yttrium(Y)-substituted bismuth titanate $(Bi_{4-x},Y_x)Ti_3O_{12}$ [x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1](BYT) thin films were deposited using an RF sputtering method on the $Pt/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrates. The structural properties and electrical properties of yttrium-substituted $(Bi_4-xYx)Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films were analyzed. The remanent polarization of $(Bi_4-xYx)Ti_3O_{12}$ films increased with increasing Y-content. The $(Bi_{3.25}Y_{0.75})Ti_3O_{12}$ films fabricated using a top Au electrode showed saturated polarization-electric field(P-E) switching curves with a remanent polarization(Pr) of $8{mu}C/cm^2$ and coercive field (Ec) of 53 kV/cm at an applied voltage of 7 V. The $(Bi_{3.25}Y_{0.75})Ti_3O_{12}$ films exhibited fatigue-free behavior up to $4.5{ imes}10^{11}$ read/write switching cycles at a frequency of 1MHz.
