Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We have experimentally studied and revealed the direct relationship between polarization switching and subthreshold characteristics of HfO2-based ferroelectric FET (FeFET) and Anti-FeFET (A-FeFET) by systematically designing and fabricating devices, and monitoring Ig with high resolution. In the circumstances that charge injection prevents polarization switching from occurring in subthreshold region of FeFET, we have obtained two major findings: (1) Sub-60 subthreshold slope (SS) can be realized by adjusting Vg bias sequence, which is attributed to charge injection assisted by polarization switching. (2) Anti-ferroelectric facilitates to align polarization switching in subthreshold region and SS can be improved in A-FeFET, which is directly observed by monitoring Ig.
