“…The obtained values for P r and P s are comparable to those reported in the literature for orthorhombic ZrO 2 film capacitors, in which a wake-up cycle was needed. 17,22,23 In addition, the polarization values are lower than the ones found in rhombohedral 5 nm Hf 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 films, 12 whereas the coercive field is significantly lower (more than 3 times less), which is beneficial for technological applications. Reduction of the switching voltages of these materials is considered a key step for memory applications.…”

“…The formation of the tetragonal, monoclinic, and orthorhombic crystalline phases in ZrO 2 thin films are influenced by doping, annealing, interfacial layers, and growth conditions. [ 34,38–42 ] There is a notable thickness dependence that causes the low permittivity monoclinic phase to appear in films thicker than 10 nm due to a grain size effect. [ 14,43 ] Higher annealing temperatures can also cause the formation of the monoclinic phase and are technologically prohibitive from the perspective of back‐end‐of‐line integration.…”

“…Overall, the formation of the o- and the t-phase in thin ZrO 2 films seems to depend on different factors. For instance, electrode materials , and interface layers can play a role, but stress and strain can favor the o-phase too. In contrast, crystallization in the m-phase is often observed for atomic layer deposited (ALD)-doped HfO 2 or mixed Hf x Zr 1– x O 2 films above 20 nm. ,, …”
