Abstract

Ferroelectric PZT (Pb (Zr,Ti)O3) from 100 nm down to 50 nm thick was deposited on Pt/SiO2/Si substrates using MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) under reduced pressure at 550°C. Using Pb (DPM)2, Zr (DPM)4, and Ti(i–OC3H7)4 as precursors made it possible to control the composition of CVD films and to produce pure perovskite crystalline structure in the range of thickness less than 100 nm. Electrical measurements of the capacitors revealed that 50-nm PZT films typically had a dielectric constant of 500, resulting in the same capacitance as 0.4-nm SiO2.
