Post-growth annealing of the capacitor structure in oxygen deficient atmosphere exhibits the formation of vacancy type defects in all layers. A significant increase in open volume defects was found in the top and bottom electrode. The changes in the bottom electrode were studied more closely by etching off the top layer.
