ABSTRACT:
A ferroelectric capacitor for use in integrated circuits and having an asymmetric operation. The capacitor has a bottom electrode, a layer of ferroelectric material over the bottom electrode, a dielectric spacer on the sides of the bottom electrode and ferroelectric material, and a top electrode over the layer of ferroelectric material. The bottom and top electrode are comprised of different materials. Alternatively, an ion implantation region is formed in the top surface of the layer of ferroeletric material. A method of forming the asymmetric ferroelectric capacitor is also disclosed.
