Mfis Structure

The MFS and MFIS structures were prepared on the Si and PbO/Si substrate by the r.f. magnetron sputtering method. When the PbO buffer layer was inserted between the PZT thin film and Si substrate, the crystallization of the PZT thin films was considerably improved, and the processing temperature was lowered. Compared with the MFS structure, memory window values of the MFIS structure with the buffer layer were considerably improved. In particular, in the MFIS structure, the maximum value of the memory window is 2.0 V under the applied voltage of 9V for Pt/PZT (200 nm, 400ı)/PbO (80 nm)/Si structures with the PbO buffer layer deposited at the substrate temperature of 300ı.

This paper reports the effect of silicon substrate orientation and aluminum nitride buffer layer deposited by molecular beam epitaxy on the growth of aluminum nitride thin films deposited by DC magnetron sputtering technique at low temperature. The structural analysis has revealed a strong (0001) fiber texture for both substrates Si (100) and (111) and a hetero-epitaxial growth on few nanometers AlN buffer layer grown by MBE on Si (111) substrate. SEM images and XRD characterization have shown an enhancement in AlN crystallinity thanks to AlN (MBE) buffer layer. Raman spectroscopy indicated that the AlN film was relaxed when it deposited on Si (111), in compression on Si (100) and under tension on AlN buffer layer grown by MBE/Si (111) substrates, respectively. The interface between Si (111) and AlN grown by MBE is abrupt and well defined; contrary to the interface between AlN deposited using PVD and AlN grown by MBE. Nevertheless, AlN hetero-epitaxial growth was obtained at low temperature (<250°C).

The structural analysis has revealed a strong (0001) fiber texture for both Si(100) and (111) substrates, and a hetero-epitaxial growth on a AlN buffer layer, which is only a few nanometers in size, grown by MBE onthe Si(111) substrate. SEM images and XRD characterization have shown an enhancement in AlN crystallinity. Raman spectroscopy indicated that the AlN film was relaxed when it deposited on Si(111), in compression on Si(100) and under tension on a AlN buffer layer grown by MBE/Si(111) substrates, respectively.
