Abstract

A method for fabricating a ferroelectric device with improved ferroelectric characteristics and which can provide a reliable contact resistance of a barrier metal layer. The method includes forming an adhesion layer and a barrier metal layer to be electrically connected to the contact plug buried in an insulating layer. The adhesion layer and the barrier layer is then patterned to define an upper surface and a sidewall thereof. An oxidation barrier layer is formed on sidewalls of the patterned layer. An oxide electrode layer and a metal electrode layer are formed thereon for forming a lower electrode. Next, a ferroelectric film and an upper electrode layer are formed thereon. Subsequently, the upper electrode layer, ferroelectric film, platinum and the oxide electrode are patterned to form a ferroelectric capacitor. A diffusion barrier layer is then formed to protect the ferroelectric capacitor.
