Abstract
high density ferroelectric memory process flow requires the integratio n of conducting barrier layers to connect the drain of the pass-gate t ransistor to the bottom electrode of the ferroelectric stack. We are s tudying the effect of crystallinity of the TiN/Pt barrier layer with S i wafers on the ferroelectric properties of Sr0.5CoO3/Pb(Nb0.04Zr0.28T i0.68)O-3/La0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (LSCO/PNZT/LSCO) capacitors. Structural studi es indicate complete phase purity (i.e., fully perovskite) in both epi taxial and polycrystalline materials. The polycrystalline capacitors s how lower remnant polarization and coercive voltages. However, the ret ention, fatigue, and imprint characteristics are similar, indicating m inimal influence of crystalline quality on the ferroelectric propertie s.
