Abstract
A ferroelectric thin film capacitor and a method for producing the same wherein the capacitor dielectric includes multi-layered crystallographic textures. An integrated circuit device, such as a non-volatile memory device, includes at least one capacitor having a top and bottom electrode thereof and a ferroelectric dielectric layer therebetween. The ferroelectric dielectric layer comprises a first ferroelectric layer having a first crystallographic texture forming a main body of the dielectric layer and a second ferroelectric layer having a second differing crystallographic texture forming an interface layer between the main body and one of the top and bottom electrodes.
