Oxide-Thin-Film-Transistor-Based Ferroelectric Memory Array

A new ferroelectric memory array on a glass substrate has been developed using In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs). Each memory cell is composed of two normal IGZO TFTs and a ferroelectric TFT (FeTFT). Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] is employed as the gate dielectric layer of the FeTFT. All the fabrication processes were performed below 200°C. The fabricated memory successfully demonstrated disturb-free write/readout operation. The current ratio between the “1” and “0” states is about 104.
