Abstract: A capacitor device, such as a metal insulator metal (MIM) capacitor includes a seed layer including tantalum, a first electrode on the seed layer, where the first electrode includes at least one of ruthenium or iridium and an insulator layer on the seed layer, where the insulator layer includes oxygen and one or more of Sr, Ba or Ti. In an exemplary embodiment, the insulator layer is a crystallized layer having a substantially smooth surface. A crystallized insulator layer having a substantially smooth surface facilitates low electrical leakage in the MIM capacitor. The capacitor device further includes a second electrode layer on the insulator layer, where the second electrode layer includes a second metal or a second metal alloy.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for an integrated circuit (IC). The IC may include a capacitor. The capacitor may include a first electrode, a second electrode, and a paraelectric layer between the first electrode and the second electrode. A first interface with a first work function exists between the paraelectric layer and the first electrode. A second interface with a second work function exists between the paraelectric layer and the second electrode. The paraelectric layer may include a ferroelectric material or an anti-ferroelectric material. A built-in electric field associated with the first work function and the second work function may exist between the first electrode and the second electrode. The built-in electric field may be at a voltage value where the capacitor may operate at a center of a memory window of a polarization-voltage hysteresis loop of the capacitor. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Described is a ferroelectric-based capacitor that improves reliability of a ferroelectric memory by providing tensile stress along a plane (e.g., x-axis) of a ferroelectric or anti-ferroelectric material of the ferroelectric/anti-ferroelectric based capacitor. Tensile stress is provided by a spacer comprising metal, semimetal, or oxide (e.g., metal or oxide of one or more of: Al, Ti, Hf, Si, Ir, or N). The tensile stress provides polar orthorhombic phase to the ferroelectric material and tetragonal phase to the anti-ferroelectric material. As such, memory window and reliability of the ferroelectric/anti-ferroelectric oxide thin film improves.

Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a stack of capacitors with a vertical first electrode coupled to a stack of individual second electrodes by an insulating storage material between first and second electrodes, and an access transistor coaxially aligned with, and coupled to, the vertical first electrode. The storage material may be a ferroelectric material. A gate dielectric of the access transistor may be around, and coaxial with, a channel region. The channel region may be vertically oriented and coaxial with the first electrode. A second access transistor may be similarly aligned with the first electrode and the stack of capacitors with the capacitor stack between the transistors. A channel of the second transistor may be around, and coaxial with, a gate dielectric. The transistors and capacitor stack may be in arrays of transistors and capacitor stacks. A self-aligned process may be used to form the capacitor and transistor arrays.
