Abstract

In this work, we applied the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process to the planarization of ferroelectric film. We compared the structural characteristics of BST $(Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3)$ films before and after the CMP process. Their dependence on slurry composition was also investigated. Finally, we suggest the self-developed titania $(TiO_2)$ mixed abrasive slurry (MAS) for FRAM applications. Our experimental results on the ferroelectric film are encouraging for the next generation of FRAM applications.
