Abstract

To understand the effect of deposition sequence of ferroelectric HfZrO, we investigated the ferroelectric polarization characteristics of a 50%-zirconium-doped HfZrO and a stacked HfZrO metal-ferroelectric-metal capacitors. Based on experimental results, we find that the leakage current can be effectively suppressed in stacked HfZrO film. The film stack structure is favorable for simultaneously stabilizing the ferroelectric polarization and minimizing the generation of interface defect traps during the post-metal annealing process with a thermal budget of 600–800 °C, which is favorable for complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor frond- and back-end process integration with various thermal budget requirement.
