Ferroelectric dynamic-field-driven nucleation and growth model for predictive materials-to-circuit co-design

Yi Liang, Soohyeon Kim, Tony Chiang +8

Real ferroelectric devices operate under mixed and distorted time-varying voltages, yet the standard nucleation-growth frameworks used to interpret ferroelectric switching - most n…

Material-Limited Switching in Nanoscale Ferroelectrics

Tony Chiang, John J. Plombon, Megan K. Lenox +8

The ferroelectric switching speed has been experimentally obfuscated by the interaction between the measurement circuit and the ferroelectric switching itself. This has prohibited…

Ferroelectric AlBN sputtered thin films on n-type Si bottom electrodes

Ian Mercer, Chloe Skidmore, Sebastian Calderon +2

Ferroelectric AlBN thin films are grown on highly doped and plasma treated (100) n-type Si. We demonstrate ferroelectricity for x = <0.01, 0.02, 0.06, 0.08, 0.13, and 0…
