Abstract Scope |
Hf based oxides have several phases, such as monoclinic (thermodynamically stable phase at room temperature and 1 atm), tetragonal, cubic and orthorhombic. Recently, ferroelectric characteristics was discovered in Hf based oxide thin films with meta-stable noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic phase (space group: Pbc21). Because of Si process compatibility of Hf oxide, derivatives of Hf oxide have been extensively investigated for ferroelectric device applications. In this presentation, phase transformation to meta-stable orthorhombic phases from as-deposited amorphous thin films will be discussed along with their ferroelectric characteristics. |
