The growth of the ferroelectric heterostructure is accomplished at a temperature in the range of 500-600°C. This integration results in a 3-dimensional stacked capacitor-transistor geometry which is important for high density nonvolatile memory (HDNVM) applications. Transmission electron microscopy shows smooth substrate-film and film-film interfaces without any perceptible interdiffusion. The ferroelectric properties and reliability of these integrated capacitors were studied extensively at room temperature and 100°C for different growth temperatures. The capacitors exhibit excellent reliability, both at room temperature and at elevated temperatures, making them very desirable for HDNVM applications.
