The thin film of PbTiO3 is fabricated at substrate temperature of 100-150$^{\circ}C$. The infrared spectrum of the ferroelectric thin film is measured as temperature of thermal treatment, 400 - 550$^{\circ}C$. According to infrared spectrum analysis, there are absorption bands at a nearby wave number of 1000 $\sim$ 400 cm-l and the thin film treated by temperature of 550$^{\circ}C$ has absorption bands of wave number 500 cm-l similar to infrared response property of PbTiO3 powder. The pyroelectric infrared detector is fabricated after deposition of Pt and PbTiO3 thin film on Si wafer by sputtering machine. The measured remnant polarization are 11.5-12.5$\muC/cm2$, breakdown electric field Ec is 100-120KV/cm, and voltage responsivity and detectivity is -280V/W, -108cm Hz/W.

Current status and prospects of FET-type FeRAMs (ferroelectric random access memories) are reviewed. First, it is described that the most important issue for realizing FET-type FeRAMs is to improve the data retention characteristics of ferroelectric-gate FETs. Then, necessary conditions to prolong the retention time are discussed from viewpoints of materials, device structure, and circuit configuration. Finally, recent experimental results related to the FET-type memories are introduced, which include optimization of a buffer layer that is inserted between the ferroelectric film and a Si substrate, development of a new ferroelectric film with a small remnant polarization value, proposal and fabrication of a 1T2C-type memory cell with good retention characteristics, and so on.

유기물 강유전체 재료를 이용한 비휘발성 메모리에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 현재까지 알려진 대표적인 재료는 P(VDF-TrFE)이다. P(VDF-TrFE)는 결정화 온도가 낮기 때문에 저온공정이 가능하여 향 후 플렉서블 소자 응용에도 유망하다. 최근의 연구결과에서는 고유전율의 절연층을 삽입함으로써 누설전류를 감소시켜, 저전압에서 우수한 강유전성이 얻어질이 보고되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 P(VDF-TrFE)의 조성 변화를 통하여 최적의 강유전성이 얻어지는 조건을 찾고자 노력하였으며, 조성 변화에 따른 구조적, 전기적 특성에 대하여 보고한다.

In this paper, the preparation of lead zirconium titanate(PZT) thin film by sol-gel processing was descried. Thin film coated with thickness of 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ on the stainless steel substrates using the multiple spin-coating process. The crystalline phases of PZT powder and film were investigated by X-ray diffraction pattern and PZT thin film has perovskite structure over 600 C annealing temperature. Corona charging characteristics of the ferroelectric PZT thin film at 600 C were investigated by electrophotographic measurement. A difference in the charging characteristics between positive and negative corona charging was found. The charge acceptance depended in the polarity of corona and the poling of film. According to the D-E hysteresis measurment, PZT thin film can be poled by corona charging without use of top electrode. The remnant polarization in the PZT thin film is generally in the order of 48$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$. From this results, the ferroelectric PZT thin film will be possible to apply for the add-on type imaging formation.

The structure and electrical characteristics of metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor FET(MFSFET) for a single transistor memory are presented. The MFSFET was comprised of polysilicon islands as source/drain electrodes and $BaMgF_4$ film as a gate dielectric. The polysilicon source and drain were built-up prior to the formation of the ferroelectric film to suppress a degradation of the film due to high thermal cycles. From the MFS capacitor, the remnant polarization and coercive field were measured to be about $0.6{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 100 kV/cm, respectively. The fabricated MFSFETs also showed good hysteretic I-V curves, while the current levels disperse probably due to film cracking or bad adhesion between the film and the Al electrode.

Polycrystalline and epitaxial heterostructure films of $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}/Pb(Nb_{0.04}Zr_{0.28}Ti_{0.68})O_{3}/La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}$ (LSCO/PNZT/LSCO) capacitors were evaluated in terms of low voltage and high speed operation in high density memory, using TiN/Pt conducting barrier combination. Structural studies for a high density ferroelectric memory process flow, which requires the integration of conducting barrier layers to connect the drain of the pass-gate transistor to the bottom electrode of the ferroelectric stack, indicate complete phase purity (i.e. fully perovskite) in both epitaxial and polycrystalline materials. The polycrystalline capacitors show lower remnant polarization and coercive voltages. However, the retention, and high-speed characteristics are similar, indicating minimal influence of crystalline quality on the ferroelectric properties.

2/65/35 PLZT stock solution prepared by Sol-Gel processing was spin-coated on ITO coated glass and annealed by RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing). The crystal structure of films was reported based on the observation of crystallization process and microstructure of the film fabricated at different fabrication condition. Films were crystallized into rhombohedral structure by annealing at $750^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. As the annealing temperature increased, the size of rosette structure of the films was grown up from $2.4{\mu}m$ to $15{\mu}m$, dielectric constant was increased, coercive field was decreased 33.82 kV/cm, remnant polarization was increased to 39.84 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and Optical transmittance was decreased.

Recently, thick PZT films are required for the cases of micro piezoelectric devices with high driving force, high breakdown voltage and high sensitivity, and so on. In this work, thick PZT films were fabricated by Sol-Gel multi-coating method. Microstructures, and electrical properties of films were investigated by XRD, FESEM, impedance analyzer, and P-E hysteresis. PZT films with 2.7$mu extrm{m}$ to 4.4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thickness were fabricated. Dielectric constant, loss, remnant polarization and coercive field of them were 880~1650 at 1kHz, 2~3% at 1kHz, 26~32 $\mu$C/$ extrm{cm}^2$, and 33~60kV/cm, respectively. Also a transverse piezoelectric coefficient $(e_{31,f})$ measurement system was fabricated and tested for thick film samples.
