Unified Memcapacitor-Memristor Memory for Synaptic Weights and Neuron Temporal Dynamics
Simone D'Agostino, Marco Massarotto, Tristan Torchet +7
We present a fabricated and experimentally characterized memory stack that unifies memristive and memcapacitive behavior. Exploiting this dual functionality, we design a circuit en…
Modelling and Simulations of Ferroelectric Materials and Ferroelectric-Based Nanoelectronic Devices
David Esseni, Francesco Driussi, Daniel Lizzit +2
This paper provides a brief introduction to the phenomenological aspects of the polarization in ferrroelectric materials, and then an analysis of a few selected topics related to t…
Ferroelectric based FETs and synaptic devices for highly energy efficient computational technologies
David Esseni, Riccardo Fontanini, Daniel Lizzit +3
The technological exploitation of ferroelectricity in CMOS electron devices offers new design opportunities, but also significant challenges from an integration, optimization and m…
Modelling and design of FTJs as high reading-impedance synaptic devices
Riccardo Fontanini, Marco Massarotto, Ruben Specogna +3
We present an in-house modelling framework for Ferroelectric Tunnelling Junctions (FTJ), and an insightful study of the design of FTJs as synaptic devices. Results show that a mode…
