  • Abstract
    This paper deals with the investigation of mechanisms leading to a degradation of the electrical properties of titanium nitride - aluminum oxide - titanium nitride capacitors at high temperatures. Several degradation mechanisms could be identified by thorough electrical and physical characterization. The findings will serve as a future guide to build thermally stable MIM capacitors
