We report the electrical properties of metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor (MFMIS) structures using (Bi, La)4Ti3O12 (BLT) thin films with HfO2 buffer layers for one-transistor(1T)-type FeRAM applications. Since high-capacitance buffer layers are required to realize the high density of MFMIS gate structures, we used a HfO2 layer as an insulator material. Ferroelectric BLT layers were fabricated by the sol-gel technique and HfO2 buffer layers were deposited by the RF sputtering method. It is demonstrated that Pt/HfO2/n-Si MIS structures have a low leakage current in the 10-9 A/cm2 range with an equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of 3.5 nm. The capacitance–voltage (C–V) characteristics of the Pt/BLT/Pt/HfO2/n-Si MFMIS diode with an SI/SF area ratio of 6 reveal a large memory window of 3 V due to the ferroelectric properties of the BLT films.
