Abstract

A first electrode film containing TiAlN and a main dielectric film containing tantalum oxide are formed over a semiconductor substrate. Anneal is performed in the state that the first electrode film and the main dielectric film are formed, to react aluminum (Al) in the first electrode film with oxygen (O) in the main dielectric film and form a subsidiary dielectric film containing aluminum oxide at an interface between the first electrode film and the main dielectric film. A second electrode film is formed facing the first electrode film via the main dielectric film and the subsidiary dielectric film.

Claims (12)

1. A manufacture method for a semiconductor device comprising:

forming a first electrode film comprising TiAlN and a main dielectric film comprising tantalum oxide over a semiconductor substrate;

performing anneal in a state that the first electrode film and the main dielectric film are formed, to react aluminum in the first electrode film with oxygen in the main dielectric film and form a subsidiary dielectric film comprising aluminum oxide at an interface between the first electrode film and the main dielectric film; and

forming a second electrode film facing the first electrode film via the main dielectric film and the subsidiary dielectric film.

2. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first electrode film before the anneal is equal to or thicker than 5 nm.

3. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 2 , wherein a content ratio of Al to Ti of the first electrode film before the anneal is in a range between 30 atm % and 50 atm %.

4. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 3 , wherein an anneal temperature of the anneal is in a range between 400° C. and 600° C.

5. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 2 , wherein an anneal temperature of the anneal is in a range between 400° C. and 600° C.

6. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein a content ratio of Al to Ti of the first electrode film before the anneal is in a range between 30 atm % and 50 atm %.

7. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 6 , wherein an anneal temperature of the anneal is in a range between 400° C. and 600° C.

8. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein an anneal temperature of the anneal is in a range between 400° C. and 600° C.

9. The manufacture method for a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , further comprising forming another subsidiary dielectric film comprising aluminum oxide between the main dielectric film and the second electrode film.
