The thin films of high pemitivity in ferroelectric materials using a capacitor are applied to DRAMs and FRAMs. (Ba, Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films as ferroelectric materials were prepared by the sol-gel method and made by spin-coating on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2/Si$ substrate at 4,000 [rpm] for 10 seconds. The devices of BST thin films to composite $(Ba_{0.7},Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$ were fabricated by changing of the depositing layer number on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. The thin film capacitor to be ferroelectric devices was investigated by structural and electrical properties. The thickness of BST thin films at each coating numbers 3, 4 and 5 times was $2500[\AA]$, $3500[\AA]$, $3800[\AA]$. The dielectric factor of thin film when the coating numbers were 3, 4 and 5 times was 190, 400 and 460 on frequency l[MHz]. The dielectric loss of BST thin film was linearly increased by increasing of the specimen area.

The thin films of high permitivity in ferroelectric materials using a capacitor are applied to DRAMs and FRAMs. (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$ thin films as ferroelectric materials were prepared by the sol-gel method and made by spin-coating on the Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate at 4,700 [rpm] for 10 seconds. The devices of BST thin films to composite (Ba$\_$0.7/Sr$\_$0.3/)TiO$_3$ were fabricated by changing of the depositing layer number on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate. The thin film capacitor to be ferroelectric devices was investigated by structural and electrical properties. The thickness of BST thin films at each coating numbers 3, 4 and 5 times was 2500[${\AA}$], 3500[${\AA}$], 3800[${\AA}$]. The dielectric factor of thin film when the coating numbers were 3, 4 and 5 times was 190, 400 and 460 on frequency 1[MHz]. The dielectric loss of BST thin film was linearly increased by increasing of the specimen area.

Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ is one of the most attractive ferroelectric materials for realizing the FeRAM due to its higher remanant polarization and the ability to withstand higher coercive fields. Generally, the ferroelectric materials were patterned by a plasma etching process for high-density FeRAM. The applicable possibility of CMP process to pattern Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ instead of plasma etching process was investigated in our previous study for improvement of an angled sidewall which prevents the densification of ferroelectric memory and is apt to receive the plasma damage. Our previous study showed that good removal rate with the excellent surface roughness compared to plasma etching process were obtained by CMP process for the patterning of Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$. The suitable selectivity to TEOS without any damage to the structural property of Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ was also guaranteed. In this study, the removal mechanism of $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ coated by sol-gel method was investigated. Surface analysis of polished specimens at the best and worst conditions was carried out by XPS.

Gadolinium-substituted bismuth titanate, $Bi_{3.3}Gd_{0.7}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BGT), thin films were successfully fabricated on Pt(111)/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates by a sol-gel method and their structural and ferroelectric properties have been characterized. Fabricated BGT thin films were found to be random orientations, which were confirmed by X-ray diffraction experiment and scanning electron microscope analysis. The remanent polarization ($2P_r$)) of BGT thin film annealed at $720^{\circ}C$ was $25.85\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 5 V. The BGT thin films exhibited a 11 % reduction in their switching charge after no less than $10^{11}$ switching cycles at a frequency of 1 MHz.

Recently, multiferroics have attracted much attention due to their numorous potentials. In this work, we attemped to utilize the multiferroics as an alternative material for ferroelectrics. Ferroelectric materials have been stadied to ferroelectric random access memories, however, some inevitable problems prevent it from inplementation. multiferroics shows a ferroelectricity and has low process temperature $BiFeO_3$(BFO) films have good ferroelectric properties but poor leakage characterization. Thus we tried, in this work, to adopt $HfO_2$ insulating layer for metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor(MFMIS) structure to surpress to leakage current. $BiFeO_3$(BFO) thin films were fabricared by using a sol-gel method on $HfO_2/Si$ structure. Ferroelectric BFO films on a p-type Si(100)wafer with a $HfO_2$ buffer layer have been fabricated to form a metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) structure. The $HfO_2$ insulator were deposited by using a sol-gel method. Then, they were carried out a rapid thermal annealing(RTA) furnace at $750\;^{\circ}C$ for 10 min in $N_2$. BFO films on the $HfO_2/Si$ structures were deposited by sol-gel method and they were crystallized rapid thermal annealing in $N_2$ atomsphere at $550\;^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. They were characterized by atomic force microscopy(AFM) and Capacitance-voltage(C-V) curve.
