Effect of forming gas annealing on the ferroelectric properties of Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 thin films with and without Pt electrodes
View through CrossRef
The effects of forming gas annealing (FGA) on the ferroelectric properties of Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) films were examined. Although the H-incorporation during FGA degrades the ferroelectric properties of Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 films, the degree of degradation was much lower compared with other ferroelectrics, such as Pb(Zr,Ti)O3. Pt worked as a catalyst for H-incorporation, and maximum 2Pr loss of ∼40% occurred. However, the insertion of a ∼20-nm-thick TiN layer between Pt and Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 decreased the degradation to ∼12%. Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 is more resistant to degradation by FGA compared with the conventional ferroelectrics, which is a highly promising result for next-generation ferroelectric memory.
