Abstract

To provide a method that can be used to form a high-qualility ferroelectric film by forming good nuclei when using the sputtering method to manufacture a PZT capacitor or other forroelectric capacitors using Ir or other electrode substances in addition to Pt for the electrode. In the method for manufacturing a PZT ferroelectric capacitor CAP, after titanium film 31 is deposited on Ir electrode 6, lead oxide 32 is deposited at a substrate temperature higher than the crystallization temperature of lead titanate using the sputtering method. Lead zirconate titanate 34 is then deposited at a substrate temperature higher than the aforementioned substrate temperature using the sputtering temperature. Afterwards, a heat treatment of the deposited film is performed to produce PZT film 17.
