Problems solved by technology

However, during the crystallization annealing of HfO2 film, it is easy to react with TiN and TaN electrodes to form an interface layer and element diffusion, which leads to the degradation of the electrical properties of the film; when the thickness of the HfO2 film is further reduced, these effects will be more prominent
On the other hand, although ferroelectric capacitors such as Pt / FE-HfO2 / Pt, Ir / FE-HfO2 / Ir, Au / FE-HfO2 / Au, W / FE-HfO2 / W also show good ferroelectric properties , but inert metals such as Pt, Ir and Au are difficult to etch, and the leakage current of W / FE-HfO2 / W ferroelectric capacitors is relatively large
[0006] Based on the above problems, the structure and preparation process of hafnium oxide-based ferroelectric capacitors with good process compatibility, excellent ferroelectric properties and high electrical reliability are still to be developed
