Organic nonvolatile memory devices based on ferroelectricity

Adv Mater. 2010 Mar 5;22(9):933-45. doi: 10.1002/adma.200900759.

Abstract

A memory functionality is a prerequisite for many applications of electronic devices. Organic nonvolatile memory devices based on ferroelectricity are a promising approach toward the development of a low-cost memory technology. In this Review Article we discuss the latest developments in this area with a focus on three of the most important device concepts: ferroelectric capacitors, field-effect transistors, and diodes. Integration of these devices into larger memory arrays is also discussed.
