Abstract
A semiconductor structure includes, from bottom to top or from top to bottom, a gate electrode, a ferroelectric dielectric layer, a metal-rich metal oxide layer, a dielectric metal nitride layer, and a metal oxide semiconductor layer. A ferroelectric field effect transistor may be provided by forming a source region and a drain region on the metal oxide semiconductor layer. The metal-rich metal oxide layer and the dielectric metal nitride layer homogenize and stabilize the interface between the ferroelectric dielectric layer and the metal oxide semiconductor layer, and reduce excess oxygen atoms at the interface, thereby improving switching characteristics of the ferroelectric field effect transistor.
