In this talk, we will introduce our findings on the mechanisms at the MFIS interface and their impacts on the memory characteristics of Si/HfO2-based ferroelectric FETs. The charge trapping near the interfacial layer, which exists between the HfO2-based ferroelectric insulator and the Si channel, is the key factor that determines the device operation. Under positive gate voltage, the electron-trap-assisted polarization reversal is the mechanism that drives the memory characteristics of n-channel ferroelectric FETs, while the similar mechanism cannot be observed for holes under negative voltage. Moreover, it is also found that the MFIS interface-state density is an important factor that affects the memory characteristics. We show that low interface-state density at the Hf0.5Zr0.5O2/Si interface can be achieved by performing the ferroelectric-phase crystallization with low-temperature annealing. |
