Abstract: An interfacial layer is formed in a manner that enables a ferroelectric layer to be formed such that formation of ferroelectric crystalline phases (e.g., orthorhombic crystalline phases) in the ferroelectric layer is increased and formation of non-ferroelectric crystalline phases (e.g., monoclinic phases, tetragonal phases) in the ferroelectric layer is reduced. To achieve this, the grain size and/or other properties of the interfacial layer may be controlled during formation of the interfacial layer such that the grain size and/or other properties of the interfacial layer facilitate formation of a larger grain size in the ferroelectric layer. At larger grain sizes in the ferroelectric layer, the concentration of the ferroelectric crystalline phases in the crystal structure of the ferroelectric layer may be increased relative to if the ferroelectric layer were formed to a smaller grain size.
