High-permittivity lead-based perovskite dielectrics for DRAM applications

Abstract
Suppression of the nonvolatile polarization in lead zirconate titanate films by La doping or by use of films 100 nm or less in thickness provides the highest charge storage densities yet observed. These films also satisfy leakage current density and TDDB requirements for very high density DRAMs, and show good resistance to fatigue.
