    Abstract: A field-effect transistor (FET), selectively switchable between first and second states, includes: source and drain regions and a channel region disposed therebetween; a gate arranged to selectively receive a bias voltage which switches the FET between the first and second states; a memory structure between the gate and the channel region, structure including a first portion which is anti-ferroelectric and a second portion which is ferroelectric, both portions being polarized in a first direction when the FET is in the first state; and a depolarization dielectric layer disposed proximate to the memory structure. When the FET is set to the first state, the depolarization dielectric layer destabilizes a polarization of the second portion of the memory structure while maintaining a polarization of the first portion.

    Abstract: A process of forming a three-dimensional (3D) memory array includes forming a stack having a plurality of conductive layers of carbon-based material separated by dielectric layers. Etching trenches in the stack divides the conductive layers into conductive strips. The resulting structure includes a two-dimensional array of horizontal conductive strips. Memory cells may be distributed along the length of each strip to provide a 3D array. The conductive strips together with additional conductive structure that may have a vertical or horizontal orientation allow the memory cells to be addressed individually. Forming the conductive layers with carbon-based material facilitate etching the trenches to a high aspect ratio. Accordingly, forming the conductive layers of carbon-based material enables the memory array to have more layers or to have a higher area density.

    Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to a ferroelectric memory device. The ferroelectric memory device includes a multi-layer stack disposed on a substrate. The multi-layer stack has a plurality of conductive layers and a plurality of dielectric layers stacked alternately. A channel layer penetrates through the plurality of conductive layers and the plurality of dielectric layers. A ferroelectric layer is disposed between the channel layer and both of the plurality of conductive layers and the plurality of dielectric layers. A plurality of oxygen scavenging layers are disposed along sidewalls of the plurality of conductive layer. The plurality of oxygen scavenging layers laterally separate the ferroelectric layer from the plurality of conductive layers.
