Abstract
The physical and electrical properties of Pt SrBi2 Ta2 O9 (SBT)/buffer layer (BL)/Si metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor (MFIS) structures incorporating HfO2, SiO2, and Si 3 N 4 as buffer layers were investigated. When employing HfO2 as the buffer layer, an MFIS structure exhibiting a high memory ratio was constructed, presumably because of the SBT characteristics and the high quality of the HfO2 layer on the Si substrate. This study demonstrates that HfO2 is one of the best buffer-layer materials for ferroelectric memory applications.
