Abstract

The feasibility of a high speed ferroelectric graphene memory device using a ferroelectric polymer (PVDF-TrFE)/graphene stack has been demonstrated. The conductivity of this metal-ferroelectric-graphene (MFG) device could be modulated up to 775% with a very fast programming speed down to 10 ns. Also, programmed states were maintained up to 1000 s with endurance over 1000 cycles. In addition to demonstrating a single memory device, the array-level integration and cell write/read functionality of a 4 × 4 MFG array adopting a graphene bit line has also been confirmed to show the feasibility of MFG memory.
