초록

Pt 상부 전극 증착온도가 Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$(PZT) 박막의 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. Pt 상부 전극을 $200^{\circ}C$이상의 고온에서 증착하는 경우, Pt 전극의 하부에 위치한 PZT 박막은 강유전 특성이 심하게 저하되었으나, Pt 전극이 증착되지 않았던 부분은 강유전 특성이 저하되지 않았다. 이와 같은 현상이 발생된 것은 진공 chamber 내의 수증기가 Pt 상부전극의 촉매 작용에 의해 수소 원자로 분해되고, 이 분해된 수소 원자가 고온에서 Pt 하부의 PZT 박막 내로 확산해 들어가 PZT박막에 산소 공공을 만들어 내기 때문이다. Pt의 촉매 작용이 없이는 수증기의 수소 원자로의 분해가 어려우므로 Pt 전극이 덮여져 있지 않는 PZT 박막은 강유전 특성이 저하되지 않는다. 이러한 강유전 특성의 저하는 산소 분위기의 RTA(rapid thermal annealing)처리에 의해 회복이 되었다. 한편, 누설전류 특성은 Pt 상부 전극의 증착온도가 증가함에 따라 향상되는 특성을 보였다.

The effects of deposition temperature of Pt top electrodes on the electrical properties of Pb(Zr,Ti))$O_3$, (PZT) thin film were investigated. When the Pt top electrodes were deposited at substrate temperatures of $200^{\circ}C$ or above,the ferroelectric properties of the PZT thin film under the Pt electrode were severely degraded. Whereas those of the PZT film where the Pt electrodes were not deposited were not degraded. Water vapors which remained in the vacuum chamber were dissociated into hydrogen atoms by the catalysis of Pt top electrode, and those hydrogen atoms diffused into the PZT film and produced oxygen vacancies at high substrate temperature, resulting in the degradation of the ferroelectric properties of the PZT film located under the Pt electrode. Since the water vapors could not be dissociated into hydrogen atoms without the catalysis of Pt. the degradation of the PZT film did not take place where the Pt electrode were not deposited. The degraded feroelectric properties could be recovered by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatment. On the other hand. leakage current characteristics were improved with increasing the deposition temperature of Pt top electrodes.
