    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a plurality of ferroelectric memory cells arranged over a substrate. Each of the plurality of ferroelectric memory cells includes: a first conductive structure extending along a first lateral direction and having a central portion and a pair of side portions, the side portions respectively extending away from the central portion along a second lateral direction perpendicular to the first lateral direction; a ferroelectric layer disposed above the first conductive structure and in contact with the central portion of the first conductive structure; a channel film disposed above a portion of the ferroelectric layer; a second conductive structure disposed above and in contact with the channel film; and a third conductive structure disposed above and in contact with the channel film.

    摘要: A semiconductor device according to an embodiment includes a substrate, a source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer that are disposed over the substrate to be spaced apart from each other in a direction substantially perpendicular to a surface of the substrate, first and second oxide channel layers the extend in the direction substantially perpendicular to the surface of the substrate between the source electrode layer and the drain electrode layer, a ferroelectric layer disposed adjacent to the first and second oxide channel layers, and a gate electrode layer disposed on the ferroelectric layer. The first and second oxide channel layers have different band gap energies from each other.

    摘要: A memory structure including three-dimensional NOR memory strings and method of fabrication is disclosed. In some embodiments, a memory structure includes randomly accessible ferroelectric storage transistors organized as horizontal NOR memory strings. The NOR memory strings are formed over a semiconductor substrate in multiple scalable memory stacks of thin-film storage transistors. The three-dimensional memory stacks are manufactured in a process that includes forming operational trenches for vertical local word lines and forming auxiliary trenches to facilitate back-alley metal replacement and channel separation by a backside selective etch process. In some embodiments, the ferroelectric storage transistors are junctionless field-effect transistors (FeFETs) having a ferroelectric polarization layer as the gate dielectric layer formed adjacent a semiconductor oxide layer as the channel region.
