    摘要: An arrangement, a method and a system to read information stored in a layer of ferroelectric media. The arrangement includes a layer including a ferroelectric media having one or more ferroelectric domains holding bit charges, a domain corresponding to information; a probe having a tip, wherein the media and the tip are adapted to move relative to one another such that the tip scans the ferroelectric domains of the media while applying a contact force to the domains to generate a direct piezoelectric effect within the domains; and circuitry coupled to the tip and adapted to generate a signal in response to an electrical coupling between the tip and the domains while scanning the tip in contact with the domains, the signal corresponding to a readout signal for ferroelectric bit charges stored in the media.

    摘要: For a probe based data storage (PDS) device a ferroelectric film stack may be used as a media to store data bits by polarizing areas of the film as either an up domain or a down domain to represent bits. However a built-in-bias field (BBF) may create domain retention problems. By growing the ferroelectric films with stress and composition gradients this may generate polarization gradients which reduce the bias field. Thus, the retention (or imprint) may be improved with minimized BBF.

    摘要: Multiple FBARs may be manufactured on a single wafer and later diced. Ideally, all devices formed in a wafer would have the same resonance frequency. However, due to manufacturing variances, the frequency response of the FBAR devices may vary slightly across the wafer. An RF map may be created to determine zones over the wafer where FBARs in that zone all vary from a target frequency by a similar degree. A tuning layer may be deposited over the wafer. Lithographically patterned features to the tuning layer based on the zones identified by the RF map may be used to correct the FBARs to a target resonance frequency with the FBARs still intact on the wafer.
