Abstract

An all-epitaxial stacked ferroelectric capacitor, from the conductive plug to the top electrode, fabricated on a silicon substrate with a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor is described. An SrRuO 3 /Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 /Ir/TiN/Si(100) heteroepitaxial structure with epitaxially grown thin films on a silicon substrate had good crystallinity. Each thin film was oriented in the (100) direction with a cube-on-cube alignment on the silicon crystal lattice. The switching charges of fabricated epitaxial capacitors were around 36 μ C/cm 2 . The charge was less dependent on size for capacitors larger than 5 × 5 μ m.
