Replacement metal cob integration process for embedded dram

Abstract

Embodiments include an embedded dynamic random access memory (DRAM) device, a method of forming an embedded DRAM device, and a memory device. An embedded DRAM device includes a dielectric having a logic area and a memory area, and a trace and a via disposed in the logic area of dielectric. The embedded DRAM device further includes ferroelectric capacitors disposed in the memory area of dielectric, where each ferroelectric capacitor includes a first electrode, a ferroelectric layer, and a second electrode, and where the ferroelectric layer surrounds the first electrode of each ferroelectric capacitor and extends along a top surface of the dielectric in the memory area. The embedded DRAM device includes an etch stop layer above the dielectric. The second etch stop in the logic area may have a z-height that is approximately equal to a z-height of a top surface of the second etch stop in the memory area.
