Abstract
We have successfully developed a 0.602 μm2 nestled ´Chain´ FeRAM cell technology for 64Mbit FeRAM. In the ´Chain´ FeRAM a pair of capacitors on a same node can be nestled close to each other A combination of a one mask etching process of ferro-electric capacitors and the nestled structure drastically scaled down the cell size to 0.602 μm2. The cell size was reduced to 32% of previous work. Signal window of 600 mV was obtained by the nestled ´Chain´ FeRAM structure after full integration of three-metal CMOS technology.
