Abstract

In a thin film transistor, each of an upper electrode and a lower electrode is formed of at least one material selected from the group consisting of a metal and a metal nitride, represented by TiN, Ti, W, WN, Pt, Ir, Ru. A capacitor dielectric film is formed of at least one material selected from the group consisting of ZrO, HfO, (Zr, Hf)O(0<x<1), (Zr, Ti)O(0<y<1), (Hf, Ti)O(0<z<1), (Zr,Ti, Hf)O(0<k, l, m<1, k+l+m=1), by an atomic layer deposition process. The thin film transistor thus formed has a minimized leakage current and an increased capacitance.
