摘要:
Ferroelectric memory devices are formed on an integrated circuit substrate. A bottom interlayer dielectric layer is positioned on the integrated circuit substrate and a plurality of ferroelectric capacitors are arranged in a row and column relationship on the bottom interlayer dielectric layer. A top interlayer dielectric layer is disposed on a surface of the integrated circuit substrate including the plurality of ferroelectric capacitors.
