A SPICE-Compatible Compact Model of Ferroelectric Diode 150 150

Abstract:

In this work, for the first time, we present a SPICE-compatible compact model of ferroelectric (FE) diodes to enable their design exploration for diverse applications, including memory and unconventional computing paradigms. We propose modified Schottky barrier and hopping models for capturing the on- and off-mode operations of the FE diode, …

Polar-Axis Orientation Fluctuations and the Impact on the Intrinsic Variability in Ferroelectric Capacitors

Polar-Axis Orientation Fluctuations and the Impact on the Intrinsic Variability in Ferroelectric Capacitors 150 150

Abstract:

We utilized phase-field simulations to investigate the effects of polar-axis (PA) orientation fluctuations on the extrinsic properties of single ferroelectric (FE) grains, focusing on the coercive electrical field (EC) and the remnant polarization (Pr). The underlying mechanisms through which PA orientation fluctuations influence polarization behavior are studied to gain insights …
