Ferroelectrics for semiconductor devices

Abstract
The integration of thin film ferroelectrics with silicon processing is being implemented for various types of devices. The technology is based on the sputtering or chemical deposition of lead-based perovskites such as lead zirconate titanate. Factors concerned with the integration of ferroelectric films with semiconductor processing are described. Major interests in Canada include nonvolatile ferroelectric random access memories for high-speed digital or long-term analog memory applications, high-density capacitors, electro-optic switches, and a wide range of sensors and actuators integrated into silicon.
