Abstract :
For the first time, we successfully developed highly reliable 50nm-thick polycrystalline PZT capacitor using noble Ir/SrRuO3 top electrode and MOCVD PZT technology. In the 50nm-thick PZT capacitor, 33μC/cm2 of remanent polarization and 0.7V of saturation voltage have been demonstrated. Moreover, after 100hrs of bake-time at 150°C, opposite-state polarization margin was over 23μC/cm2, which is world-wide best result so far achieved. Using this capacitor technology, highly reliable low voltage operating embedded FRAM device was successfully developed.
