摘要
We investigated the retention behavior of Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 (PZT) capacitors with Ir/SrRuO3 (SRO) top electrodes. The capacitors with Pt and Ir/IrO2 top electrodes were also prepared for comparison. The opposite state retention characteristic of the PZT capacitor was significantly improved by using an Ir/SRO top electrode structure. The nonvolatile polarization of the opposite state retention was kept at 96% of its initial value even after a 100 h baking test at 150 degrees C, while those of Pt and Ir/IrO2 were 36 and 59%, respectively. The retention enhancement is attributed to the effective inhibition of defect generation on the interface between PZT and SRO. (c) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
