Abstract

We have developed single transistor ferroelectric memory using stack gate PZT/Al 2O 3 structure. For the same ∼40 Å dielectric thickness, the PZT/Al 2O 3/Si gate dielectric has much better C-V characteristics and larger threshold voltage shift than those of PZT/SiO 2/Si. Besides, the ferroelectric MOSFET also shows a large output current difference between programmed on state and erased off state. The <100 ns erase time is much faster than that of Flash memory where the switching time is limited by erase time.
