WebCovering the top electrode 105 is performed by a first TEOS hardmask 119 used to etch the top electrode 105 and the ferroelectric layer 103 (PZT layer). The multilayer barrier 115 covers the hard mask 119, the top electrode 105, and the ferroelectric layer 103 (PZT layer). The multilayer barrier 115 is composed of at least two layers, but an ...

WebFeb 11, 2000 · Compared to the fluorocarbons, CH 2 demonstrated better selectivity and less faceting of the TEOS hardmask. However, the profile, even before etch completion, was re-entrant even with high CH 4 flows. The double-bonded structure of the C 2 H 4 makes it a more polymerizing gas than CH 4 and subsequently a better sidewall passivant. WebThe present invention provides a ferroelectric device relatively free of fences by using a hardmask having high etching selectivity relative to an underlying barrier layer. The present invention also includes a method for suppressing the fences clinging to the sidewalls of ferroelectric devices. Additionally, the present invention provides a ferroelectric device … jeff beck there and back tracks
