Abstract
A silicon nitride barrier layer is deposited on a gallium arsenide substrate to prevent evaporation of the substrate in subsequent heating steps. A silicon dioxide stress reduction layer is deposited on the barrier layer. A first electrode is formed on the stress reduction layer, then a liquid precursor is spun on the first electrode, dried at about 400.degree. C., and annealed at between 600.degree. C. and 850.degree. C. to form a BST capacitor dielectric. A second electrode is deposited on the dielectric and annealed.
