Abstract
We prepared poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) films in the β phase by a sol-gel method using PVDF solutions with different weight fractions. The electrical properties of PVDF films were studied for the possibility of using them in one-transistor (1-T)-type ferroelectric random-access memories (FRAMs). In this research, the Au/PVDF/Si structure made from PVDF solution of 6 wt % concentration showed good ferroelectric and electrical properties. The memory window width and current density for the PVDF film from the 6 wt % PVDF solution were about 1.8 V and 10-6 A/cm2 for a bias voltage of 5 V, respectively. It is expected from these good ferroelectric properties that PVDF films will be suitable for low-cost 1-T-type FRAMs operating at a low voltage.
