Improvement of Retention Property of YMnO3/Y2O3/Si MFIS Capacitor
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 March 2011
Abstract
We have been proposing YMnO3 with low remanent polarization and permittivity as a ferroelectric gate transistor, and reported that c-oriented YMnO3 films were obtained on (111)Si with (111) oriented Y2O3 buffer layer. The ferroelectricity was confirmed by pulsed C-V measurement. However, the retention property was not satisfied because of its poor crystallinity. To improve the crystallinity of YMnO3 films, deposition conditions of Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) were optimized. The laser power, oxygen pressure and introducing Ozone gas are effective for maintaining the stoichiometry during the deposition. Improvement of the crystallinity of the YMnO3 film makes the retention property better. We also demonstrate the use of epitaxially grown Y2O3 buffer layer to improve the crystallinity of the YMnO3 films.
