Abstract

In this paper, we first applied the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process to the planarization of ferroelectric film in order to obtain a good planarity of electrode/ferroelectric film interface. $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (shortly PZT) ferroelectric film was fabricated by the sol-gel method. And then, we compared the structural characteristics before and after CMP process of PZT films. Their dependence on slurry composition was also investigated. We expect that our results will be useful promise of global planarization for ferroelectric random access memories (FRAM) application in the near future.
