  • Abstract
    TaN/SrTiO3/TaN capacitors with a capacitance density of 28-35 fF/mum2 have been developed by using a high-kappa (kappa=147-169) SrTiO3 dielectric containing nanometer-sized microcrystals (3-10 nm). A small capacitance effective thickness was achieved by reducing the interfacial TaON using N+ treatment on the lower TaN electrode during post-deposition annealing. The small (92 ppm/V2) voltage coefficient of the capacitance and the 3times10-8 A/cm2 leakage current at 2 V exceed the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors´ requirements for analog capacitors at year 2018
