ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes a method including: providing a substrate; forming an underlying layer over the substrate; heating the substrate; forming a ferroelectric layer over the underlying layer, the ferroelectric layer having a thickness below a critical thickness, the underlying layer having a smaller lattice constant than the ferroelectric layer; cooling the substrate to room temperature; and inducing a compressive strain in the ferroelectric layer.
