Abstract: A ferroelectric memory device includes a memory layer, made of a silicon-based ferroelectric memory material. The silicon-based ferroelectric memory material includes a mesoporous silica film with nanopores and atomic polar structures on inner walls of the nanopores. The atomic polar structures are formed by asymmetrically bonding metal ions to silicon-oxygen atoms on the inner walls, and the silicon-based ferroelectric memory material includes semiconductor quantum dots, metal quantum dots and metal-semiconductor alloy quantum dots.

Abstract: A memory device comprises a substrate, a tunnel oxide layer, a charge trapping layer, a block oxide layer, a plurality of conductive quantum dots, a metal gate and a source/drain structure. The tunnel oxide layer is disposed on the substrate and has a thickness substantially less than or equal to 2 nm. The charge trapping layer is disposed on the tunnel oxide layer. The quantum dots are embedded in the charge trapping layer. The block oxide layer is disposed on the charge trapping layer. The metal gate essentially consisting of aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), tantalum nitride (TiN), titanium nitride (TaN), aluminum-silicon-copper (Al—Si—Cu) alloys or the arbitrary combinations thereof is disposed on the block oxide layer. The source/drain structure is disposed in the substrate.
