Abstract :
We fabricated ferroelectric (Pb,La)(Zr,Ti)O3 (PLZT) capacitors with Pt, Al:ZnO, or Sn:In2O3 top electrodes. The remnant polarization decreased for these PLZT capacitors after forming gas (3%H2/balance N2) annealing at 200°C and 1 Torr, especially for PLZT capacitor with Pt top electrodes due to the catalytic effect of Pt. The time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry depth profile showed that the hydrogen content in PLZT thin films with Pt top electrode increased ca. 2.7 times after forming gas annealing compared with ca. 1.2 times with other electrodes.
