Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a stable ground laminated film to be formed under a lower electrode when a capacitor element where a ferroelectric film serves as a capacitor insulating film is formed on an insulating substrate. SOLUTION: A first process where a titanium film 32 is formed on a substrate 31 covered with an insulating film, a second process where nitrogen ions 33 are implanted into the titanium film 32, a third process where a titanium nitride film 34 subjected to a heat treatment to serve as a diffusion barrier is formed, a fourth process where a platinum film 35 is formed, a fifth process where a ferroelectric film 36 of metal oxide and a platinum film 37 are formed thereon, and a sixth process where the platinum film 37, the ferroelectric film 36, the platinum film 35, the titanium nitride film 34, and the titanium film 32 are selectively etched are provided. Therefore, a diffusion barrier layer is formed through implantation of ion and a heat treatment, whereby the diffusion barrier layer which prevents platinum and titanium from reacting on each other can be formed ensuring a titanium film of enough thickness to keep a lower electrode and a substrate high in adhesion between them.

According to the present invention, a metal film is formed on an insulating substrate, and an element that reacts with the metal film to form a diffusion barrier layer is ion-implanted into the surface of the metal film and heat-treated to form a diffusion barrier. After forming the layer, there is a step of forming a noble metal film to be the lower electrode, and it is possible to prevent the reaction between the metal film as the adhesive layer and the lower electrode without impairing the adhesiveness between the lower electrode of the capacitive element and the substrate. It is possible to realize an excellent method for manufacturing a capacitive element.

In addition to the above structure, after a metal film and a noble metal film are continuously formed on an insulating substrate by sputter deposition, the metal film reacts with the metal film at the interface between the noble metal film and the diffusion barrier. The diffusion barrier layer may be formed by ion-implanting a layer-forming element and heat-treating it, or by forming a metal film on an insulating substrate by sputter deposition in a rare gas, and then using nitrogen gas or oxygen gas. The diffusion barrier layer may be formed by sputter deposition in a rare gas containing a mixed gas with nitrogen gas.
