Abstract

Ferroelectric HfO2 technology shows promise for non-volatile memory and neuromorphic devices. However, charge trapping limits their performance. This work presents temperature-dependent electrical characterization that reveals distinct memory window behaviors, transitioning from ferroelectric to trapping. Our measurements span six orders of magnitude in time, and ambient temperatures of 80-300 K. Analysis of threshold voltage, memory window, and de-trapping dynamics extracts a trap energy level of 0.2 eV, providing crucial insights for advancing FE HfO2-based FeFETs technology.
