Low temperature processing of PCMO thin film on an Iridium layer for RRAM application

摘要

A method of applying a PCMO thin film on an iridium substrate for use in a RRAM device, includes preparing a substrate; depositing a barrier layer on the substrate; depositing a layer of iridium on the barrier layer; spin coating a layer of PCMO on the layer of iridium; baking the layer of PCMO and substrate in a three-step baking process; post-bake annealing the substrate and the layer of PCMO in a RTP chamber; repeating said spin coating, baking and annealing steps until the layer of PCMO has a desired thickness; annealing the substrate and the layer of PCMO; depositing a top electrode; and completing the RRAM device.
