摘要:
A method for forming a capacitor of a semiconductor device. A lower electrode is prebaked before a dielectric layer is formed on the lower electrode. As a result, moisture or contaminants are removed from the lower electrode, increasing adhesion between the lower electrode and the dielectric layer formed on the lower electrode, thereby preventing the dielectric layer from being lifted and cracked due to inferior coating properties.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device having a dual gate allows for the gates to have a wide variety of threshold voltages. The method includes forming a gate insulation layer, a first capping layer, and a barrier layer in the foregoing sequence across a first region and a second region on a substrate, exposing the gate insulation layer on the first region by removing the first capping layer and the barrier layer from the first region, forming a second capping layer on the gate insulation layer in the first region and on the barrier layer in the second region, and thermally processing the substrate on which the second capping layer is formed. The thermal processing causes material of the second capping layer to spread into the gate insulation layer in the first region and material of the first capping layer to spread into the gate insulation layer in the second region. Thus, devices having different threshold voltages can be formed in the first and second regions.

摘要:
A ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) device, and a fabrication method therefor, includes seed layers above and below a ferroelectric layer. The seed layers formed above and below faces of the ferroelectric layer can prevent an imprint phenomenon from being generated in a ferroelectric capacitor by making the characteristics of the upper and lower interfaces of the ferroelectric layer be the same. This is accomplished by providing upper and lower seed layers that are crystallized prior to the ferroelectric layer during a thermal treatment. This results in crystallization occurring from the upper and lower faces to the center of the ferroelectric layer, making the characteristics of the upper and lower interfaces of the ferroelectric layer the same, thereby improving ferroelectric capacitor characteristics.
