  • Patent number: 7390679
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a ferroelectric capacitor, includes the steps of: forming a ferroelectric capacitor layer having a lower electrode layer, a ferroelectric layer and an upper electrode layer on a base substrate; forming a titanium oxide layer on the ferroelectric capacitor layer; patterning the titanium oxide layer by high-temperature etching between 200° C. and 500° C. to thereby form a mask pattern; and etching the ferroelectric capacitor layer by using the mask pattern as a mask, to thereby form a ferroelectric capacitor having a lower electrode, a ferroelectric film and an upper electrode.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20070212796
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a ferroelectric capacitor includes the steps of: forming a ferroelectric capacitor having at least a lower electrode, a ferroelectric film and an upper electrode on a base substrate; and applying an anneal treatment to the ferroelectric capacitor in an oxygen atmosphere, wherein the step of forming the ferroelectric capacitor includes forming the ferroelectric capacitor to have a structure in which an electrode protection film composed of titanium oxide is provided on the upper electrode.
