Abstract

AbstractAl substitution for Zr/Ti site of PZT was attempted using a sol-gel method, and the ferroelectric properties of 200nm-thick Al doped PZT thin films were compared with those of non- doped PZT film. The leakage current of the thin films decreased with increasing Al content. Ps and Pr also decreased with increasing Al content, whereas Ec did not show a significant change. Furthermore, a simple capacitor cell structure like FeRAM was prepared using a seed layer process. The capacitor structure was Pb(Ti0.975Al0.025)O3/ Pb1.1((Zr0.52Ti0.48)0. 975Al0.025)O3/ Pb(Ti0.975Al0.025)O3, and 2Pr was 26μC/cm2. The fatigue properties of the A1 doped PZT capacitor cell showed a little improvement, because the reduction rate of the fatigue was smaller than that of non-doped PZT thin film.
