Embodiment 1

[0033]Embodiment 1: The microstructure processing of BMF ferroelectric single crystal is carried out by applying the nano-acoustic etching system constructed in the present invention, and Fig. 2 shows the test results. Figure 2(a) is the AFM image of the surface topography of the BMF single crystal sample, and Figure 2(b) is the acoustic imaging of the micromachined ferroelectric domain structure obtained in situ in the corresponding region of the sample. Obviously, Figure 2(a) is very different from Figure 2(b). The topography image 2(a) only shows the information of polishing scratches on the sample surface, while the acoustic image 2(b) clearly shows the dot-like ferroelectric domain array structure when the micromachining voltage is 190V / 10μs. Figure 2(c) is the acoustic image result of the column-like ferroelectric domain array microfabricated in another area of ​​the sample, and Figure 2(d) is the acoustic signal of the line A-B in Figure 2(c), showing that the column-li...

Embodiment 2

[0034] Embodiment 2: Application of the nanoacoustic etching system formed by the present invention to another BaTiO 3 Ferroelectric single crystal microstructure processing, Figure 3 shows the test results. Similar to Example 1 above, Fig. 3(a) is the AFM image of the surface topography of the sample, and Fig. 3(b) is the acoustic imaging of the micromachined ferroelectric domain structure obtained in situ in the corresponding region of the sample. Acoustic image Figure 3(b) clearly shows the ferroelectric domain array structure when the micromachining voltage is 230V / 5μs. The mechanism of the assembly of metal nanoparticles is also of great reference value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an etching device of a micro-nano ferroelectric domain structure based on an acoustic microsystem of an atomic force microscope, and belongs to the field of instrument development. Background technique [0002] Ferroelectrics random access memories (FRAM) are favored by major semiconductor companies in the United States, Japan, Europe and other countries because of their advantages such as non-volatility, low power consumption, radiation resistance, and high integration. As a non-volatile memory, FRAM is expected to become a new generation of memory products after flash memory (Flash) due to various performance advantages. The storage principle of FRAM is based on the physical characteristics of ferroelectric materials - the principle of polarization reversal of ferroelectric domains. The ferroelectric domain structure is the physical basis of the data storage unit (bit) of FRAM, and its polarization state will change with the...
