Abstract
The ferroelectric properties of 20 nm Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) thin films has been investigated in a wide temperature range from 100 K to 450 K. The remnant polarization of HZO thin films decreases slightly from 24.6 μC cm−2 (100 K) to 17.9 μC cm−2 (450 K), indicating a robust temperature stability. The capacitors also exhibit excellent endurance properties up to 109 cycles at 100 K and 300 K, and their endurance cycles slightly degrades to 108 at an elevated temperature of 450 K. The results show that HZO ferroelectric thin films have great potential for future emerging memory applications in various harsh temperature environments.
