Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, ferroelectric materials are mostly used in ferroelectric memory. In the integrated architecture of traditional ferroelectric memory, a transistor and a ferroelectric capacitor need to be integrated. This 1T1C structure is not conducive to large-scale integration and is destructive read
Moreover, traditional ferroelectric materials are not compatible with CMOS processes. For example, ferroelectric films with perovskite structures have ferroelectric size effects, small energy band gaps, and mismatches with silicon interfaces when applied to silicon-based ferroelectric devices. Problems such as performance degradation caused by heat treatment during the crystallization process
In addition, memories based on ferroelectric materials are generally thicker, resulting in lower current density, which limits the performance and miniaturization of devices.
