We report the electrical characteristics of a kind of non-volatile memory device consisting of a field-effect transistor where the gate insulator includes a thin ferroelectric polymer film, producing a Ferroelectric-FET, or FeFET. Each device consisted of a p-type silicon substrate, with diffusion-doped source and drain contacts, SiO2, HfO2, CeO2 or DyScO3 as dielectric buffer layer, a ferroelectric Langmuir-Blodgett film of a 70% vinylidene fluoride-30% trifluoroethylene copolymer, and a gold gate electrode. Details of the fabrication procedure will be presented. The source-drain conductance showed hysteresis due to polarization reversal in the ferroelectric film as the gate bias voltage was cycled. State retention was approximately several minutes. The Fe-FET is a promising low-voltage and nonvolatile memory element that affords fast non-destructive readout.
