A method providing estimation of the trap density at metal/ferroelectric interfaces of a depleted ferroelectric film located between back-to-back Schottky barriers has been developed. The method is based on the recharge of interface traps induced by external bias pulse applied to the metal/ferroelectric/metal structure. It is shown that the transient current under bias pulse can be controlled by the trap recharge on the reverse-biased interface. Using the method, the trap charge density on interfaces of the Pt/PZT/Ir(Ti/SiO2/Si) capacitor was found from transient-current measurements to be two orders of magnitude less than the remnant polarization of PbZrxTi1-xO3 film.
